GET YA SHUTOUTS HERE!
Mat Latos What has gotten into these pitchers? Did Braden sell his soul to the devil?Is Moyer a superhuman clone? Can Cueto shift time and space around him? This last week we had 3 complete game shutouts and 3 8-inning shutouts. The real question is: Who’s LEGIT and who’s gonna QUIT?
Week 6’s Must or Bust
Nick Swisher Nick Swisher – 62% of Y! Leagues8 R / 4 HRS / 11 RBI / .444 BAGoing going gone. 4 Homers this week ain't half bad. If Nick the Swish can actually hold a decent batting average this year he will hold some real fantasy value. He's on
THE ELUSIVE 50 HOME RUN CLUB. WHO’S NEXT?
Mark Reynolds From 1920 to 1965, the 50 home run mark was achieved 15 times and by only 9 different players. The Bambino was the first and he did it 3 more times. Fox, Mantle & Mays each hit 50+ twice. We then had an 11 year drought from 1966
Week 5’s Top Must or Bust
Evan Meek Kosuke Fukudome – 7r 3hr 8rbis .476Only owned in 32% of Yahoo Leagues, he’s a quick solution to your ailing team. Ride him while he’s hot because historically he has no chance of keeping it up for a whole season. I’ll give him the benefit of the doubt

Mark Teixeira If you’ve been looking into how to buy gamestop stock then you’ve probably seen the phrase “buy low & hold” a lot. And that’s because it’s good advice in pretty much any situation. Now is as good time as any to start eyeing those year after year solid
Back from the Dead
Barry Zito We all know nothing in sports is better than a comeback story. Especially players who come back from devastating injuries or even juicier drug addicted tales. 2010 is different. Nothing major happened with these guys, they just slowly fell out of out the limelight. The most interesting thing
“Chasing” The San Diego Dream
Chase Headley is on a roll and finally so are the red hot Padres. The first thing you’ll notice on the depth chart is that there are only two veterans in the starting lineup with Adrian Gonzalez and David Eckstein (although the only thing that makes Eckstein a veteran is his
Top 5 Young Pitchers owned in less than 80% of Yahoo leagues
Phil Hughes Johnathan Sanchez – 78% ownedTwo double digit strikeout games in a row one of them being a 1 hitter. Expect 200+ strikeouts this year. This guy is “Dirty”!! Kevin Slowey – 76% ownedOnly 5 runs allowed in 3 games so far. His numbers won’t be dominating, but look
So Long Frankie!!
So long Frankie!! To be frank, (sorry couldn't help myself) I never expected him to be the best closer with the name Francisco in the league but I still had high hopes for him. He started off so damn hot when CJ WIlson went down in 2009. Coming back from
