I have Lariano and if Hanson came up on the wire, I'd trip over myself typing it in...do and do it NOW! ;-D

I'd say Hanson or Nolasco are worth dropping Liriano.

I''d drop Thornton for Nolasco first. I amy consider Liriano for Hanson afterwards.

I'd be wasting no time at all swapping out *both* Thornton and Liriano for Nolasco and Hanson. None.

i agree with above... drop both for nolasco and hanson. i had liriano and dropped him for nolasco 2 weeks ago. no sweat. fyi, nolasco is a 2 start pitcher next week.

Liriano sure makes you cross-eyed doesn't he, and what the hell is Thornton doing on your team ??? Make both moves, and why in the hell are both Nolasco/Hanson even available at this point.

I agree with the rest. Drop Thornton and Liriano for Hanson and Nolasco. Both will be huge upgrades.

I'd drop Thornton before Liriano for Hanson, but would prefer Nolasco. If you can't shop Rolen around (you don't necessarily need him with A-Ram activated), I'd drop Thornton and Rolen for Nolasco and Hanson.

I'd try to take a punt on Ervin Santana if possible with Jason Kubel being the next expendable, but try dealing Kubel if you could in say, a 2-for-1 upgrade.
