I just made two moves, one for each team. I picked up SSs who have very good offensive numbers in all categories.

Choppers: Picked up Ceasar Izturis of the Dodgers. Izturis hit .288 last year with 25 stolen bases. He's shown consistent improvement at the plate in each of this three MLB seasons. I dropped Lou Ford of the Twins. Ford's a nice outfielder, but he won't provide the consistent OF performance that keep HR, RBI, and BA categories on the rise. Plus, everyone has bashers in the OF. Consistent performance from the middle infielders can make the difference in BA, RBI, HR, and especially in SB. I now have Orlando Cabrerra and Izturis at SS. I will play whomever is hot. If both are hot, I may put one at UTIL and play both.

We'll see. Can't wait.

Diamondhacks: Picked up plucky Jack Wilson, the dynamo SS of the Pirates. Excellent stats in most offensive categories. He'll share SS duties with Michael Young of the Rangers who had a career year last year. I may start Wilson, just in case Young has trouble re-creating last year's mojo. To pick up Wilson, I dropped Milton Bradley. Bradley's a nut case, and, yes, he could put all that aside and have the breakout 5-tool season that has been predicted for him in the past. However, past is prologue to the future. I am not going to wait to see. If he starts quick, maybe I'll grab him off waivers. Probably won't.

Play ball!
