Crooked Pitch

• Sickness, not injury kept Tulowitzki and Morneau out of action Friday. Tulo w/ flu-like symptoms & Morneau w/ ear infection. #Rockies #Twins #
• Aaron Cook is out for at least 1 GS. Here are 3 better options on your waiver wire anyway http://bit.ly/WIZUk #sblog #roto #Rockies #
• Three waiver wire OF’ers to fill-in while Johnny Damon heals after taking foul ball to knee http://bit.ly/143Cw6 #roto #sblog #yankees #
• @danielcox @FalconsDLevak This is why you don’t twitter and Tivo. I’m 30 minutes behind and antsy now. #

• @OaklandFans I think Jackson. #
• RT @nancygay: Burning #NFL question tonight: Which Viking is working toward a CFL career, Tarvaris Jackson or Brad Childress? #
• 3 #Falcons situations to watch tonight as they face the #Rams http://bit.ly/WXnMz #sblog #
• Chatting live right now at Fanhouse about fantasy baseball http://bit.ly/FaUXm #
• @retiredrookie I do. And I think Chris Henry’s really trying to change directions with his life. http://bit.ly/Z90VU #Bengals in reply to retiredrookie #
• Join us for a live fantasy baseball chat today at 1:00 PM ET. http://bit.ly/FaUXm #sblog #roto #
• @sporer Well said! in reply to sporer #
• Instead of feverishly voicing boycotts of the #Eagles, what if every enraged fan volunteered one 1/2 day this season at the Humane Society? #
• @VigilanteSports Yeah, it’s tough to lose that category with those guys. Ellsbury the only one you drafted? in reply to VigilanteSports #
• Keep an eye on #Bengals WR Chris Henry. His #fantasyfootball stock is rising as he caught his 2nd preseason TD and could push Coles for WR#2 #

• No, Zach Greinke’s not a bozo, but he’s worth less today in #roto circles. Especially in lgs that penalize losses http://bit.ly/w7c4Z #sblog #
• @gregotto @djackson9 @sporer @moresteve It is Chris Coghlan. Man is he hot. More to come in today’s #Roto Rush in reply to gregotto #
• I’m batting .384 with 4 HR’s, 18 RBI, 2 SB’s and a 1.014 OPS over the last 30 days but only owned in 24% of #roto leagues. Who am I? #
• @djackson9 @joshilles It is Rajai Davis. Now run and see if he’s available in your fantasy league. #
• Any idea who has the most stolen bases over the last month? Hint: He’s only owned in 25% of #roto leagues. #

• Coach Smith just told us that the #Falcons younger players were going to see time vs. #Rams 1st team. #
• @FalconsJMoore @FalconsDLevak No need to make that kind of fuss when I pull in. Don’t want to steal any thunder from @mortreport #

• Brett Favre to #Vikings does a lot for #FantasyFootball values of Bernard Berrian & Adrian Peterson too. http://bit.ly/dqGXd #sblog #
• Fantasy Flings today is about the AFC East. Sanchez vs. Clemens, Lewis vs. Galloway, TO + more http://bit.ly/39cAca #sblog #fantasyfootball #
• @teejaystudio Other then a day or 2 where Redman stepped it up, DJ has been the better QB in camp. I’ll keep you informed on future details. in reply to teejaystudio #
• Always Be Closing features Gregg’s demotion, suckitude from Lidge and Capps and praise for MacDougal. http://bit.ly/1AIwb2 #sblog #roto #
• RT @grazdanny: I will be on First Take on ESPN2 at 10 am ET this morning, talking #Giants and #Panthers. #NFL #
• @KBurkhardtSNY Is it so bad in NY that the #Mets injury woes are bleeding (pun intended) over into the media ranks? in reply to KBurkhardtSNY #
• @forrestfanatic I am very happy that he’s got his walk rate under control. Hanson has only walked six in his last 31.2 IP’s in reply to forrestfanatic #
• @forrestfanatic To answer your question though, Hanson’s still got a long, long way to go before we can even begin that conversation. in reply to forrestfanatic #
• @forrestfanatic First he’s compared to Smoltz before he throws a big league pitch and now you say that??? Give the kid a break. in reply to forrestfanatic #
• Tommy Hanson has 16 strikeouts and zero walks in his last two starts (12.2 IP) #Braves #
• RT @kellythesier: Justin Morneau left tonight’s game in the 4th inning after experiencing dizziness. #Twins said that it was precautionary #
• With his 13th HR tonight, Garrett Jones is hitting a dinger every 12.08 at-bats. His 13 HR’s have come in 157 AB’s #Pirates #
• RT @JeffFletcherAOL: A-Rod, playing 3B for the #Yankees 2night, is making 80 times the salary of the man playing next to him, SS Ramiro Pena #
• Is Macier Izturis becoming a power hitter? Tonight’s jack gives him 3 in August. He only had 3 the entire season before that. #Angels #
• @teejaystudio No transcript. It was on the radio. Are you interested in the actual quote or just info on the position battle? #
• This was supposed 2 get tweeted earlier. Sorry. Today’s #FantasyFootball Cut-N-Go -Lots of injury news & a deep sleeper http://bit.ly/16nsrf #
• RT @mlbbowman: LaRoche when asked about small crowd that attended today’s makeup game: “Nothing against Pittsburgh, but I am used to that.” #

• “Very interesting position battle” Coach Smith just said on 680 about the backup QB spot. #Falcons #
• Got Hanson, Lowe, Beckett, Buehrle, Jimenez, Burnett, Lincecum, King Felix, Carp & Hunter as 2-start aces. Miss anyone? http://bit.ly/2F7bh8 #
• Waiver wire two-start gems from the #Rangers this week; Scott Feldman (32% #roto owned) & Tommy Hunter (33% roto owned) #
• Who’s jumping on the Pedro two-start bandwagon for next week? #roto #Phillies - For the record, I am not. #
• Manny Parra is 5-0 in his last 6GS but has a 5.75 ERA. I can’t recommend him as a two-start pitcher this week. Am I being too hard? #roto #
• Bud Norris isn’t a must start, but he’s worth a look in deep leagues as a two-start pitcher this week. (8% #roto owned) #Astros #
• Even facing Lincecum on Sunday, Ubaldo Jimenez is a must start two-start pitcher this week. Look at his last 7 GS. #roto #Rockies #
• Fausto Carmona is a cheap 2-start option this week (16% #roto owned) - He’s got a 2.65 ERA in last 3 GS - Still walking too much though #

• @fakebaseball “fun”? My blood pressure has finally dropped from arguing about his high ADP prior to ‘09. I’m not ready for 2010 yet. in reply to fakebaseball #
• @fakebaseball Damn you for mentioning his name. I was thinking it, but not saying it. in reply to fakebaseball #
• @fakebaseball Yeah, that’s why I didn’t include Posada. I just can’t imagine a follow up 2010 season. in reply to fakebaseball #
• @fakebaseball You’re right no Inge AB’s at catcher. I just pulled up a list of catchers and he was among population. WTF? in reply to fakebaseball #
• @fakebaseball If Sandoval qualifies he’s #3. I agree Mauer, VMart. Then Napoli / McCann then at 5 I think we need 2 argue Inge/Pierz/Montero in reply to fakebaseball #
• For catcher ranking talks are we allowing Pablo Sandoval? He’s only got 3 games / 11 AB’s at catcher this season. Yahoo says yes, I say no #
• @fakebaseball Talked about this a bit Fri. Interested in your take (& everyone’s). Name the top 5 catchers headed into 2010 (non-keeper lg)? in reply to fakebaseball #
• @fakebaseball @tommy_landry I agree, he’ll be taken too early. But, you can’t argue that he needs to be the first catcher selected. in reply to fakebaseball #
• @tommy_landry Sorry. I worded that poorly. I meant he was also batting 9 for his last 23 (.391) in reply to tommy_landry #
• Joe Mauer (3-5 tonight w/ HR) is now hitting .378. Is his chase for .400 achievable? #Twins #
• Jamey Carroll (3 hits 2nite) is .444 over last week & .375 over last month. Not enough AB’s, but if he stays hot, watch out. #roto #Indians #
• Tom Gorzelanny struck out 8 batters today which is more than any other start he’s made all season. #Cubs #roto #
• Chone Figgins has swiped 2 bags tonight and is 9 for his last 23. #Angels #roto #
