urbanhack, instead of bumping that post, where were you when I asked this?

Trout was tearing it up in the minors. Is he going to play regularly for the Angels?

Unless the Angels just hired Bochy, you'd have to think so.I'm assuming almost all of his AB's will come at the expense of Bourjos, until/unless they make some other roster move.

I'm out of roster moves for the week, but I'm picking up Bass or Milone and then possibly dropping Marmol and picking up Davis, or the other of Bass/Milone, and just punting saves.

Haven't been following, but I know Allen Craig got some time at 2B last year. Possibility this year?

Has OF,2B eligibility on yahoo. The guy can hit

I actually have him on my DL but doesn't qualify for 2B. Needed 20 games last year.

Immediately? No. He either needs injuries or to rake in limited opportunities to start every day. Both of which are very possible.

Please remove your headgear
Pedro Alvarez on the cheap in a keeper???
He is scary to have to count on, but if your only 3B is Mark Reynolds then maybe you should get Alvarez.
Doctor Detroit
Please remove your headgear
He's a fill only player, I have Panda at 3B. But it's a five year keeper, just have to waste a valuable bench spot on him but I can do it for now.

You have to have a big enough bench to accommodate a platoon player
I think if you have a good 3B, and you do, then you should not take the risk in getting Alvarez. Of course, if the risk is extremely minimal, then what the hell, do it.I have Reynolds and am tired of it. I may grab Alvarez or Daniel Murphy or some other fantasy bum.

Six bench slots and I have two minor leaguers (Rizzo and Hultzen) and now Alvarez. My hitting is mostly set for now, I'm platooning Span, Presley and Duda in my utility spots and the rest of the lineup is top three in every offensive cat. Problem is starting pitching, Gallardo and Wainwright are killing me but it's a marathon.ETA: Aceves not helping either

Well as for the "isn't much" I think you need to check your pre-season expectations and actually LOOK at what some of those guys have Actually done this yearRoberts isn't as bad as you think while Barney has been worth more and Getz twice as much'jamny said:Chris Getz, Mark Ellis, Darwin Barney, Alexei Cassilla, Maicer Izturis, Jamey Carroll, Skip Schumaker, Orlando Hudson, Jeff Keppinger, Ryan Theriot.not much.'Captain Hook said:what "isn't much"?doesn't take much to be better than Tat Man right now although I do think he will pull out of it I don't know how long it will take'ChrisCooleyFan said:'jamny said:

I think some of this may be sustainable improvements, but the data is all over the place. I wouldn't be in a rush to either add or cut him.

Well, at this point Roberts is ranked #36 among 2nd base qualifying players. With limited moves allowed in the league, I'm going to hang in there with him and hope he turns it around. Getz and Barney would be good in an AL/NL only league (maybe more for Getz if he got full time AB's)I was just hoping there was some minor leaguer that might be brought up soon that is being overlooked.I'm keeping an eye on Lombardozzi with the Nats and tracking Wong and Segura but I doubt either gets a call until September.Well as for the "isn't much" I think you need to check your pre-season expectations and actually LOOK at what some of those guys have Actually done this yearRoberts isn't as bad as you think while Barney has been worth more and Getz twice as much'jamny said:Chris Getz, Mark Ellis, Darwin Barney, Alexei Cassilla, Maicer Izturis, Jamey Carroll, Skip Schumaker, Orlando Hudson, Jeff Keppinger, Ryan Theriot.not much.'Captain Hook said:what "isn't much"?doesn't take much to be better than Tat Man right now although I do think he will pull out of it I don't know how long it will take'ChrisCooleyFan said:'jamny said:

Given my roster below, would you trade Grienke for one of the following: Miggy, Hamilton, Granderson, Longoria. 5x5 H2H league. I'm 2-1 so far and I need power (8 out of 12 in HR) and 1st in Wins, so it looks like a good deal. No way Hamilton is going to keep this pace up, but he should still end up ok. Are there any of the 4 that you wouldn't trade Grienke for?

these offers are on the table? i know in h2h pitching is more valuable (people dont understand unless their in one) but id take any of those for grienke. if you can get miggy id dance naked in the streets. and fyi your pitching looks very week to me
the moops
Footballguy
How is this even a question?
Not on the table but the owner of those 4 sent an email that he wants frontline stating pitching and to make him an offer. I know my RP is bad (losing Wilson hurt), but you think my SP is weak (we start 5)?
dparker713
Footballguy
He probably means Halladay
TF - I wouldn't trade Greinke if I were you. Beside the fact you will not get Miggy or Longoria (Granderson maybe), your pitching would be in trouble as it's not quite that strong. Plus, you have a bunch of guys out injured. Season is not won/lost in April. Hang tight. Ellsbury and Morse should be back in June, and that's like doing a trade where you give up nothing and get two starters in return. If you can get Miggy or Longoria (check status, just got hurt) for Greinke, well, I think you do that. But, you need some pitching, imho.
why do you think so? i dont know a bunch of goofball stats and such, but his babip is pretty low compared to previous seasons, and he's never had an .era under 4.33

He doesnt pitch in Coors anymore and he throws 94mph all of a sudden
No kidding, where the hell did that come from?

And his GB rate has skyrocketed, which Fangraphs attributes to increased use of his two-seamer. Here's some good info. Those are some compelling numbers. He's rostered in my 14-teamer.

Picked up Alexi Casilla. A couple of good games, hopefully the start of a hot streak.Well, at this point Roberts is ranked #36 among 2nd base qualifying players. With limited moves allowed in the league, I'm going to hang in there with him and hope he turns it around.

So is this a fluke, or a sign that Colorado's pitching staff sucks (or Baltimore's is awesome)???
