    That's the rumor...it seems to have died down in the last two weeks though...

    You're right, it doesn't make a lot of sense to send your only other catcher down, especially when Saltalamacchia is hitting better than Laird.

    Maybe it's him just venting.

    Well, Salty didn't have a great spring and Laird did.

    Salty hit .182 with a homer and 4 RBI...Laird hit .290 with 4 HR and 8 RBI.

    However...I drafted Josh Hamilton and he tore it up this spring. He's going to be a monster in Texas. Spring numbers....556, 2, 13

    I misread it then...I thought it said Salty was hitting better...

    OK...who would you pick up?
    Ramon Hernandez, Bal
    Paul Lo Duca, Was
    Carlos Ruiz, Phi
    Josh Bard, SD
    Jason Kendall, Mil
    Ronny Paulino, Pit

    I think Hernandez or Paulino are more likely to get you your fantasy numbers. Kendall has ZERO power, Ruiz and Bard are barely better than Kendall, Lo Duca won't be any good since he's off the juice. The Paulino situation depends on how much time he splits with Ryan Doumit...who is just as good. The thing with Paulino is his size. No too many 245 pound catchers can stay strong in August and September.

    I saw Doumit on that list too...he might see some time in the OF.

    Yeah...he's a pretty versatile guy. But at best he'll platoon since Nady, Bay and McLouth seem to have the starting spots. Duffy splits time in CF and Doumit will get a few in RF, but nothing spectacular.

    Hernandez could be trade bait as well, so I think I'd take Paulino out of that crowd.

    My catcher in that league is Geovany Soto...so if you mean the young Cubs catcher...I would then agree.

    Bard has limited power. Towles would be nice, but I want to see how they split time between him, Quintero and Ausmus.
