Yea,

i am watching SNY broadcast as well. They are downplaying the home run for being wind aided (and it probably was), but give the kid credit, he took the ball the other way with power

Can I add him to my keeper fantasy team

That already has Adam Jones? (And Josh Hamilton, Curtis Granderson, Jayson Werth and Raul Ibanez in the OF). I really want to, but I cant find a way to justify it.

by MattR on Jun 17, 2009 9:01 PM EDT up reply actions   0 recs

Over Jayson Werth

Reimold will have a better career and has more good-ro-great years ahead of him. I mean, Werth was a catcher for the Shorebirds back when Clinton was still in his first term. Dude ain’t no spring chicken and spent the first half of his pro career as a catcher.

I guess

Werth is so good when he gets on a hot streak which makes my partner irrationally like him. And then I have to convince a Yankees fan that is OK for our fantasy team to have two Orioles in the OF, the Rays startng middle infield, two Red Sox SP and Papelbon.

Werth can be a good fantasy player

I had him the few weeks where he homered five times in ten games and stole four bases (including home)… probably easier just cheering for Reimold. Werth is always a good guy to have because of the explosiveness.

by whereswieters on Jun 17, 2009 9:09 PM EDT up reply actions   0 recs

My question is...

if it’s a keeper league, how many more years is Werth going to be productive vs catching the Reimold Revolution from the beginning….

"I don't have a hit-and-run sign, and I believe it's the worst play in baseball." - Earl Weaver

by duck on Jun 17, 2009 9:11 PM EDT up reply actions   0 recs

if it helps

it is a head to head league with two week games. We start 9 batters (a starting lineup and utility) plus 8 pitchers (5 SP and 3RP). Roster is 27 men and we keep 11 (plus a 12th “prospect” – still a rookie). Hard to justify protecting 3 or even 4 OF.

Guess I have to hope Reimold stays a FA in my league and then take another look closer to our transaction deadline and make a decision based on how my team is doing.

Never done a keeper league myself

so take my advice for what it’s worth (not much).

umps missed a call that ended up giving the mets a run

SNY showed replays of Church stepping on home plate on his bunt single in the 4th and should have been called out. Sheffield swapped places on the bases on a wily Melvin Mora fielders choice (let a popup near the mound drop and got the speedier Church on the force at second). Mora’s play did not matter as Sheffield came around to score on a sac fly. But that runner should never have been on base to score.

Amber isn't used to interviewing players as large as Wieters.

Can’t hold the mic high enough.

Hey y'all!

Great game (besides Hendrickson), I just got home. I’ll be throwing up a recap shortly, but here is the short version:

Wooooo Nick Markakis and Matt Wieters and Aubrey Huff!

I will lead these Peoples to the promised land, also known as "Slightly Ahead of the Blue Jays." ~WietersRunDry

O-R-I-O-L-E-S!!!!! MAGIC!!!!!!

That’s the way you play in the AL East. I’m a little dissapointed that Uehara was pulled out so early but I think that is all we will see from him. B. Bass and M. Hendrickson sucked. Thank god for J. Johnson and G. Sherrill. Let’s keep winning games and get out of the AL East cellar.
