Is anyone dropping Izzy yet?

[Guest]

I have him and I'm thinking of cutting him for Brandon Webb. I just heard Memorial Day for Izzy. Does anyone know how firm that is?

Not firm at all, but I'd hold on to him for now. They say he might be back, but they keep pushing it back. Hold on to him, and see if they have been lying to us. I have a sneaking suspicion we won't see Izzy this year, but that doesnt mean i'd drop him just yet.

I would think that if Izzy wasn't likely to be back this year, that there would be all kinds of trade talks going on, because the Cards bullpen is a fiasco right now and they need a decent closer to contend. If you start to hear rumours about Benitez or other decent closers going to the Cards, that's when I'd start worrying.
