I'd pick him up for sure. Drop Scott Downs, Villaneueva, or (sad to say) Morrow. As an M's fan, I don't trust Morrow anymore. Came out yesterday and said he asked to be moved to the pen for good. Definitely future closer but I'm really thinking he's long relief this year.

He feels a ton of pressure because the M's drafted him over (Seattle native and UW Husky) Tim Lincecum. Got roped yesterday and I question his competitive spirit. Just my opinion.

I'd think twice if I had the #1 waiver position but if that's not a factor, pick up Price and stash him.

I agree with the opinion that you should jump at Price. I would probably drop Downs to do so, as well (even though he is likely to pick up a few saves).

Agreed with Z-Man, I think Ryan is in worse shape than Hoffman for the long term. Drop Villanueva.

Help?
