Piazza hurt...

[GrubNasty]

Doumit seems to be my best option in my leagues. If he doesnt pan out im pretty sure those marginal players will still be there. I dont see how the pirates can not get Doumit some playing time?

[angels7777]

I picked up Estrada off the WW. Figured he's a .300 on a good team, it might pan out now that he's got most of the catching duties.

I picked him up too...he should be good for 70 RBI hitting .300...

he was solid last year too

[damnitman]

Varitek, LoDuca, or Estrada. who would you use to replace? Never heard of this Doumit guy.

[Leena]

In regular leagues, I'd go with Estrada.

My league, walks are a stat, so I have to take Varitek. Another plus is knowing most of Varitek's rest days.

[MiggyT]

Just grabbed Estrada. He hits for average, which I like from my catcher spot.. although I'll hate the random off-days.. I'll miss you Piazza.

Can someone explain why Piazza, being out 4-6 WEEKS, is not being placed on the DL by Oakland?

[Berge20]

Are you serious?

Crap - I was wondering why he hadn't showed up as DL on Yahoo yet.

Seriously, this is bullcrap.

[quitesanemax]

I haven't heard much of anything on it. Is it possible that the 4 to 6 weeks tidbit from ESPN is a bit of an exaggeration. Maybe they are finding that it is not as serious as they had first thought...

Well, this Piazza owner can dream. lol.

By the way, I was watching the game, and went right upstairs to pick up Doumit, and someone had just picked him up! The person isn't a Red Sox fan, so I'm not sure if they just happened to have been watching the game, and did it to be obnoxious, or if it was just a coincidence.

espn has him on DL
