GameThread: Mets (33-29) @ Orioles (27-37)

I wasn't around to get up a GameThread and nobody else was either, so let's all thank Steve. for getting something up last-minute for us, and now let's marvel at how long I have to make this sentence so that it reaches 75 words. Adam Jones Bobblehead! Adam Jones Bobblehead! Adam Jones Bobblehead! Adam Jones Bobblehead! Who wouldn't want a freaking Adam Jones Bobblehead?!

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.

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.

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….

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).

They produce ALL games in HD. Time/Warner, DirecTv et.al. just won’t give them a second HD channel, just the HD and one SD.
