Edinson Vólquez - Long Term

...but yeah, I've asked around about the accent over the 'o' a bunch of times and no one ever answers. What's it, some big secret no one wants to share? I NEED TO KNOW!

Copy and paste does the trick if you know where to find one to copy and paste.

That's exactly what I did. I was doing a little research before I posted and saw that Yahoo had his name with the accent over it, so I just went with it.

I've never tried using the Windows Key Codes on this site, but I'm sure that would work too.

Key codes was a funky page...thanks guys!

You can always use Character Map, ya know? Every version of Windows comes preloaded with a character map program which should give the accented letters for each font.

I picked him up before the year started in my yahoo league. I read he struck out 13 in a AAA game, and figured I'd go for it. Kept him for the first half. Traded him and mark reynolds for M-Cab wen he was ice cold. It worked out good.

Nice trade CM.
I can't believe everything about Volquez on this thread is generally negative. The biggest complaint seems to be that he'll be over-rated in next year's drafts.
The real issue is how he will do next year. I think he still has nice upside.
I won't reach for him, but I see him as a decent No. 2 or 3 pitcher on a fantasy staff.

I think that's the issue, though. Knowledgeable owners won't reach for him, but a lot of people will (hoping for early 08 numbers), making him overrated. There's no chance he'll be around as a #3 pitcher in any league, but there is a chance he'll perform like one.

Well put, Inukchuck.
