Brian Fuentes...What the F-Bomb?!?

[ELaw77]

Is Fuentes okay?

Family troubles?

Any inside info?

consider it a mixed blessing..this guarantees that he won't be moved before sunday's post season roster deadline

Yea I agree. If he had gotten traded, then he would probably be a setup guy. Although I wished this happened before the line up was set for the week.

Anyone know if he's coming back tonight? I need him for the weekend, otherwise I might pick up Ayala.

Latest I heard is that today is the EARLIEST he could return from bereavement and Hurdle said he won't push it since it's a family issue.

Side note - unless you're playing in a small league, you should pick up Ayala anyway...a closer on a good team shouldn't sit needlessly on the WW.

of my 3 closers... perez, francisco, fuentes, would you drop any of them to pick up ayala? I need to win saves this week and don't want to drop a pitcher.
