[A Fleshner Fantasy]

CC and Vogelsong. Need ya guys tonight!

[Izenhart]

Chris Carpenter, welcome to the fantasy playoffs. Streaming AJ Griffin and Fiers hasn't worked out hopefully you can do better

[Element]

I have Carp in all 3 of my leagues today. It sucks because while I could use the W from him .... my Dodgers needs him to lose!

[Element]

....and it's raining in Chicago. Carp is 90-91, but rusty with control.

[Izenhart]

Hard to gauge when the weather is this bad. Pitches aren't breaking from either pitcher.

The list in the OP is wrong, Posey should be ahead of Braun.

[wrveres]

Did the Cubs shut Samrajidza (sp) down? I haven't seen anything but he hasn't pitched in a bit. Anybody know?

[Izenhart]

Dropping Sandoval as the playoffs started has created some friction in my league. Apparently his hot week could help end the season of the #1 seed.

Which also means by dropping him I'll get to play against him next week, asuming I win. Currently up 12-5-1.

I know dropping Sandoval is a bit of a ?? but we only have 4 bench spots, 4 max pickups a week and I'm facing a team that is SP deep with 6 starters, so I needed a spot to stream since I'm only carrying 3 starters and lots of relievers.

Also,

Samrajidza

[benb18a]

Yes he's officially shut down.
