Desperate times calls for desperate moves...WW frenzy

Postby Auronx62 » Fri May 01, 2009 9:51 am

After the first 2 starts for Volquez were not so friendly, He was dropped in my league. Being 4th waiver priority, i decided to test my luck and pick him up. I succeeded and decided that, yea i probably wont get that lucky anymore. just yesterday, I saw tulo hit waiver...and being 8th priority, i thought...damn I should try it too right? No harm to it. I ended up getting that too. now just TODAY.....i saw BJ Upton get dropped.....DAMN!! i'm 10th now waiver now! MAN this sucks haha. If for some miracle happens and i get a chance to pick him up... who do i drop for him????

Marmol or Morgan either will work.

What FAs are out there?

That's going on in my prayer group league. A guy has dropped every one of his slow starting or hurt players. Its insane.

I would get Philips somehow.....do it NOW. Lucky dog. Maybe find yourself better competition (if your not in my situation).
