What is the deal with Ruben, when he's in, he is hitting amazingly, but then yesterday Torre leaves him off with no explanation to start kenny lofton, is it worth it to pick up Ruben, and how often should i expect him to play?

Torre was resting him the past week or so because he was hurt. I have a feeling Lofton will be traded and Ruben will take over the DH role. He's hitting absolutley unbelievable.

I wouldn't pick him up just yet though, as it's questionable if he'll even play day after day.

I just picked him up to ride the hot hand -- I'll take a guy who plays 4 days a week and is hitting .350 and hitting a couple dingers vs. an everyday chump I can get on he wire who plays 6 games and hits. 280.

I'm sure I'll dump him soon (like when IL play starts and he's benched) but I'm riding this horse until it drops.

I had him on my team and dropped him earlier this week because i got frustrated with Torre benching him...if lofton is dealt he'll definitely be my first pickup.

...if lofton is dealt he'll definitely be my first pickup.

But who would possibly want Lofton??
