Keeper or redraft? The answer is likely yes to both -- just curious.

I think so. Depends on your bench and if you can risk grabbing him.

Thanks for the advice fellas ;-D

The biggest #1 waiver picks so far this year in my money league have been 1) hamels 2) marcus giles---and 1/3rd of the season if over......so i think i'll take a chance on billingsly

WOW Billingsley's stuff is just downright nasty. He can hit mid/high 90's and has a zito like curve. Glad i got him on my team. ;-D

I wouldn't compare his curve to Zito's. Zito has that big ol' lofty slow curve while Bills' is more of a late breaking hard curve. He looks a bit like Ben Sheets out there. ;-D

Cole Hammels once gave birth to a child... then went back in time to use it's head to strike out Hank Arron on his birthday

Verlander, Liriano, Weaver... now Bilingsly... keep em coming

Not only that, but he clears in time to get into my line-up for next week....here's hoping my #4 is enough :-o
