You have almost 300 posts and your asking this question? Yes pick him up!

Agreed, If he wasn't hurt Schmidt would have gone in the 1st 3 rounds in most every draft, Pick him up. Not often does a 3rd round talent get dropped, even in Public leagues.

I'd say he'd be a 1st/2nd rounder if he was healthy after last year. He was the #1 SP and is only getting better, so why not? He's Halladay plus more K's. The fact that he had surgery just makes him cheaper for me to get in all my drafts.

Someone just dropped him?!

Shocking... especially since whomever that is has been holding on to him for at least two weeks or so. Giving him up right before he gets off the DL? Inexplicable.

Congratulations.

I had the same drop in my league. I waited on picking up someone else when Cliff floyd went on the DL and I put in a claim on Schmidt. I had the #3 option (the guy who dropped him was #1) so I just had to hope that the #2 guy didn't see it - he didn't.

I've got Schmidt going tonight.
