Dewon Brazelton has quickly been dropped back to Jaime Navarro status. To think I thought he may have turned a corner based on his great spring K:BB. I didn't draft him in any leagues, but I would have still liked to have been right.
Adrian Beltre stole his 4th base yesterday. He has almost as many SB as hits. That is not exactly what I had hoped for when I drafted him. Actually, I had hoped for Eric Chavez's 5 HR. However, those stolen base totals may get another team to expect more of the same in a trade, so I won't complain too much. Yet.
Still no idea who will close in Florida, but I wouldn't pay closer value for any of them until a few saves in a row are strung together.
The Justin Verlander ROY campaign took a hit after yesterday's bombing. He may still pitch well this year, but expect more of the same - one good start followed by a nightmare that more than erases the good from the good start.
The Yankees are a team that you never want to see your ptichers going against despite the A's and Angels handling of the line-up. They are pre-humidor Coors Field every night.
Brad HAwpe? Go grab him so you can get nothing exciting.

In my leagues, I've been grabbing Cesar Carrillo and stocking him in the minors since I think that the back end of the Padres rotation is weak and that eventually Brazelton and Chan Ho Park will be exposed - and Woody Williams will go down with his annual injury.
Most of the spring training stats were a mirage. Obviously Thome wasn't, but Ryan Howard, Jason Lane, and Beltre all kind of are disappointing so far.
