Almost had to say no.
But so far, my answer is…HOPEFULLY!!!!!
Only 926 games until the end of Zito's contract

Freddy Lewis is a Giant and has been one of my best fantasy pick ups. What are the odds?

why not?
I’m in a weekly league and other than the all lefty week, he’s been worth starting.

I try not to, but there are exceptions
Guys like Freddy and Sanchez, where other players aren’t likely to know how good they could be.
I’m a big homer when it comes to middle relief, just because I don’t ever really know that much about other teams middle relief corps.

There’s strong indications a roster shakeup is brewing. Infielder Travis Denker is expected to come up and Eugenio Velez, who hasn’t played in eight games, would go down so he can play every day at Triple-A Fresno. Nothing official yet, could happen after the game.
Er . . . Please no.
I don’t mind when we rush prospects that I don’t really expect anything from, but Denker seems like a guy who could be legit if handled properly.
