I'd drop Smoltz... I don't see him with a very significant role when he returns.

Help please

Just snagged him up. I dropped Taveras, picked up Francisco and put him on my DL, and then picked up Juan Pierre. I can use his avg. and steals on my bench if I start to fall behind during the week. Good?

I might have gone with Smoltz as well, but I really like the moves you did. Francisco was lights out before his recent injury, so he'll be nice to have. Getting Pierre instead of Taveras is also good.

Here's mine, please help: viewtopic.php?f=26&t=385995

I probably would have dropped Smoltz, but since you dropped Taveras, Pierre is a good pickup for the 2 months Manny is out.

My league has 2 DL spots, so I've got Smoltz and Francisco parked in them. Not gonna hurt to keep Smoltz sitting there and see what happens. If he comes back anywhere near resembling the same Smoltz we've seen for years, with that line-up... HUGE boost to my staff!
