ALERT: Dave Roberts vs. Piazza

Okay, if you have a way to see lineups early then look when Piazza has a C start and activate Dave Roberts. Or...just activate Roberts for the next three games.

I believe the post is referring to the fact that piazza isn't well known for throwing runners out and the mets are starting a series at LA. Hence it may be wise to play roberts to get some steals.

Tom Glavine and his 1.00 ERA and only 6 BB's in 27 innings might disagree.
Blessed are the cheesemakers.

It won't matter what Tom Glavine and his 1.48 WHIP he had last year think. :-D

As long as Roberts gets on, he'll get some SB's. A walk to him with Piazza behind the plate might as well be a double or triple.

I'm kind of with chopper. I think Glavine will continue to have a good year. But Traschel and Seo the next two games could be money for roberts if Piazza is behind the dish.

On second read my original post does lack a flow.

I was justy pointing out the fact that Roberts and Piazza are going head to head. Watch Roberts bunt his way on vs. Glavine.
