both Casey and Jimenez are also better "hitters" than Dunn right now imo.. lol.
[size=10]Manny Ramirez....$20 million
Pedro Martinez....$17.5 million
Curt Schilling...$12 million (and a $2 million bonus)
Never hearing a Yankee fan chant 1918 again...priceless. [/size]

Haha, I completely forgot about Casey, and yes he's without a doubt the best hitter on their team...even I'll admit he's a better hitter than Griffey...but Dunn is not even in the same realm as Griffey, Casey, or a healthy Kearns. Weird how fantasy "experts" are such morons.
"...but half of fantasy is speculation and opinions can give a direction where to speculate. "
But don't forget that those are still opinions. Its that kind of talk that got every fantasy squd who herd, rushing to hold onto a guy like Matt Riley for so long...
lol.... yes, the infamous Matt Riley thread was quite a sight! I've been a long-time reader (since last year or longer), but have recently decided to register and actually post.
That's why I like the cafe so much. There are opinions flying around like crazy and not all of them are "correct", but it's a good way to gauge general consensus.
This site is the best fantasy site around for that reason. I haven't found another site that even comes close to cafe. It's the site I immediately go to for anything fantasy related!

I dont know if I would say they hate him, I think they are really pushing the idea to sell high on him now. He is on pace for about 60 saves, 5 blown saves, 49 hits, and only 14 ER on the season. While he may continue to play well the second half of the season, it is not likely that he will produce good enough numbers to reach the kinds of stats he is on pace for.
You could trade him for a stud player now that you never would have dreamed about getting in a trade for Benitez in the beginning of the year. But, if and when he starts to pitch at a lower level than he has so far this year, even if it is not much worse, then you can kiss that stud you dreamed about goodbye. You are stuck trading him for a second tier player when you could have had a stud. It really does make sense to trade him away now, and I think that is all they are trying to stress. However, they may be approaching the idea the wrong way and not giving him any props for the success he has had.
Does everyone value Smoltz higher than Benitez, or Benitez higher than Smoltz? Trying to get an idea as to where he is being valued by unbiased owners.
