How much longer will he get the PT...when is trot expected back? Do we think this trade for Hinske takes away some AB's...I really am looking for more stability since his homers come very random and he's such a free swinger...any thoughts and/or info??? thanks!

There is a better chance of Hinske being a UTIL man off the bench rather than a full time player.
I would bet that Hinske is more than likely to start at 3B against Chin Wang and the Red Sox will give Lowell a much needed rest before the weekend series really gets going.
He might start in right to relieve Willy MO as well, but more than likely Lowell gets the first rest.

i hope so b/c otherwise i am on the verge of dropping him lol...i won't be playing him this weekend anyways against the yanks most likely...haven't decided yet, since ima yanks fan i hate when this happens, conflict of interest...

i think the previous poster meant for '07. i had high hopes on Willy, i drafted him thinking that he would be starting for the reds in the outfield, and get close to 30 homers for them this season. then he got traded to boston, which quickly meant platoon all year, making his value drop. i got rid of him after the 1st month...
next year though, huge potential sleeper pick in late rounds for power. i see him as a ron gant type guy (except without the speed)
Vaughn: What's that sh*t on your chest?
Harris: Crisco, Bardol, Vagisil. Any one of them will give you another two to three inches drop on your curve ball.
