I have my top tier of OFers all pretty close, so Braun doesn't fall anywhere.

I'd say something about drafting him right now, but I think most leagues are wrapping that part up. Regardless, if he starts slipping late into the 1st you have to pick him up.
...Boston papers now and then suffer a sharp flurry of arithmetic on this score; indeed, for Williams to have distributed all his hits so they did nobody else any good would constitute a feat of placement unparalleled in the annals of selfishness. -Updike

Braun left the game in the 2nd inning tonight, didnt' seem to be an issue with his side but maybe his wrist.

Edit : Ryan Braun just left the game against the Padres in the middle of the second inning after a liner hit him in the thumb for his first error ever as a leftfielder in the first inning.

He non-chalanted a fly ball and put his glove out back-handed I think) and the ball missed the glove. Probably hit his writs or forearm.

Here is what Macha told FSN Wisconsin:

"A line drive got in the lights and hit him on the thumb. They're taking him to get some x-rays on the thumb. He wasn't feeling real good about (going for x-rays). We've got our fingers crossed."

Sorry for the back to back posts but seems to me that it is useful info...

UPDATE: Ryan Braun's x-rays were negative. He is offically listed as day-to-day with a right thumb contusion.
