Carlos Pena

What is everyone's take on this guy.....he is on fire now....he isn't just hitting for power but also for average and taking walks? Is he breaking out....he was highly touted for a long time.

You cant tell me I am the only guy who has noticed him over the last month.

I can't add another 1B. Dan Johnson was my 'on fire' pickup, but I'd probably get Pena if Giambi goes DL

No, you aren't the only one to notice:

The thing is that Pena done this before. People think he's finally figured it out, and then he ends up back in the minors or something. Same song different verse.

I dropped Pudge Rodriguez for him. I have Russell Martin so I figured I could be done with Pudge's downward slide. Hope I made the right move.

He's done this before. Have a monster stretch, get everyone in fantasyland worked up, then hit 2 homeruns the rest of the year while he K's a lot and the batting average plummets.


This guy was Chris Shelton before Chris Shelton was.

He's just a flash in the pan again.I never would have dropped Ivan for Pena.The catcher spot is to thin(Bad Move).

[mikebal9]

I would normally agree if I didn't have Russell martin. I'll never use Pudge anyway. I'll just cycle the spot through the hot players and pick up whatever I'm lacking that week. For now, it's Pena.

You should have traded pudge then, he has a "big name". Any who, I added Pena, but again, I don't think he'll keep this up. I'll ride his streak until D. Lee comes back.

I tried to trade him for about the last 3 weeks. No takers.
