So, let's DL him in CZ, as well. Unless Hans wants to NR Ryan Braun, or somebody else jumps thru hoops and NR's a different position player, I get WETF I want. That means I get Dexter Fowler, OF, COL, or you need to rewrite the bleepin' rule, because the way I read it, he's eligible at OF this year, as he's played at least 20 games at OF this year-- http://www.sportingnews.com/mlb/career_stats?player_id=8370 If you nix that, gimme, in order-- Ryan Spilborghs, OF, COL Nyjer Morgan, OF, PIT Then, KMIA --T,Ex *************************** *************************** Lots of Reversals ..

But they just suck. My first two DL's of the season are : Carlos Zambrano (76) replace with: Brian Bannister KC Tim Wakefield Bos Jarrod Washburn Sea Scott Richmond Tor Jorge Posada (156) replace with: Rod Barajas Tor Jesus Flores Was Ramon Castro NYM David Ross Atl thanks, Hans ************************************** Fox- Reverse Ziegler for Escobar (193). He fucking blows. Thx, Sobo ************************************** Buona Sera, Fox-- Well, maybe for you, but not for the Expectorators. Down 5.5 points on the day, 13.5 for the week. Almost as bad as GM stock. Aramis on the DL, and even Evan Longoria let me down tonite. Time to shake things up-- Gabes will probably pimp me on this one by NR'ing Manny, but-- DL Aramis Ramirez # 35, UT, and gimme the first available of -- Adam Lind, OF, TOR [at UT] Nyjer Morgan, OF, PIT [at UT] Then, REVERSE the Dexter Fowler for # 6 Josh Hamilton DL move.

Hope you had a pleasant Memorial Day weekend last week. Mandatory DL Reversals for healthy players this week. Got none of those, but do have Akinori Iwamura, 2B, TB on the DL last Monday insteada the Sunday prior [thanks to Joe Maddon]. I'll probably get pimped this week. Too many MI's on CZ's DL now. But, let's give it a shot-- DL # 215 Akinori Iwamura, 2B, TB, and gimme first available of-- Ben Zobrist, SS, TB [35 Games there last year]* Freddy Sanchez, 2B, PIT Cristian Guzman, SS, WAS* Elvis Andrus, SS, TEX* Skip Schumaker, 2B, STL [38 Games there this year] Luis Castillo, 2B, NYM Clint Barmes, 2B, COL *NOTE-- If I pick up Zobrist, Guzman or Andrus, slot the pick at SS and slide Asdrubal Cabrera [currently on my roster at SS] to 2B.

Replace with: -Aaron Rowand, SF -Jerry Hairston, Cin -Cody Ross, Fl -Marlon Byrd, Tex -Brett Gardner, NYY -J.D. Drew, Bos ****************************** Fox, Reverse Gordon/Duncan. Reverse Devine/Sanchez. Those moves have just left me with stress related concerns. Mazins ***************************** Bonjour, Fox-- Just past a turd o' the way into the season, and hoping I'm well past 100% of my injuries for the year. I'm sure Sobo and Andy feel the same, although Sobo might be milking a few too many tears, what with Smoltz and Escobar being known injury picks going into the draft 'n all. Meanwhile, George Tiller gets his puss honored on the In Memoriam segment of This Week with George Stephanopolous with the on camera quote that, "a third trimester abortion is still just an abortion." He did 192 on viable fetuses in 2008, according to the Kansas Dept. of Health, and his old man was an illegal abortionist, to boot. Good riddance to bad rubbish, IMO... So, anyway, Asdrubal Cabrera, SS, CLE # 166 joins five other Expectorators on the DL [that's the disabled list, not the down low, y'all]. Joakim Soria just got off it. More on him later. For Cabrera--damn, and he was playing so well--gimme the first available of the following butt boys-- Elvis Andrus, SS, TEX Cristian Guzman, SS, WAS Clint Barmes, SS, COL [36 games last year] Jerry Hairston, SS, CIN [34 games last year] DL Josh Hamiltion. # 6, OF, TEX, and gimme the first available of-- Aaron Rowand, OF, SF Kosuke Fukudome, OF, CHC Marlon Byrd, OF, TEX Next-- I got a wild hair.

Second, an NR move (my third?): I can't seem to get anyone decent to step in for #151 Conor Jackson, OF, so release him and his current replacement, Jerry Hairston and add Manny Ramirez, OF. Firing a little early here, figuring I can snag him before he gets too close to being activated. Can't do much worse the next couple weeks the way Hairston has played. If someone else snakes me on Manny, then good for them, I'll stay put.
