" As they pleased India Padres -- logged on the foxsports.com. In mark Sweeney's a pulse. However one already -- joined by my comment welcome to the fantasy fix was going to buy map auto parts Napa get the good stuff for -- that. Mailed back it up -- right to a -- in all of our rights Mike. I sat down watched him walk on Saturday and he was already gone what's gonna I was there."

" Should adopt -- you probably are actually opening was scratched from that game alas she got the eat around hung on you before he left in the second. I'm on a something's not right here whether he -- armed or whether his -- and because of a leg injury something's not there is not getting the ball down not getting that drive. Out of out of the pitching motion so I think he's a guy you could safely -- we weren't expecting huge with -- ERA numbers from him you were just opening get some wins and being gone find another option Randy Johnson who's finally enough innings under his -- the very sharp in his last start after a couple of rough start. They got a lot of the youngsters and people -- still ignoring your curse Shaw's. And you're you're gains and a bunch of those young players are still out and available in more than 50% of leagues you Vonnie Gallardo another one who still being ignored gotten find one of those options. Paul and Baltimore or riots have. I'll look at it adding a pitcher actually Paul hall at the top of the ER com he for real. I thought you were going to start going into a bad Harry Carrey impression. Anyway the other guy that the big over here is the strike outs that lead me a little afraid that you know. Did you get contact on and eventually these balls are gonna start flying into the gap. But the fact of the matter is only three earned runs allowed his first -- and two -- a guy who does keep the ball down pretty well. And the Pirates offense -- the the back into the rotation has issues but the offense is enough to generate some runs I think he's a guy that with the one ERA someone we have those numbers are going to shift a little bit because he walks many hitters he strikes out and I think you will see more balls fall because he doesn't have that big strikeout point. But I think he's a guy who's a nice pick up for a lot of the struggling starters and just our play in the match -- them. Finally Barry and the Sacramento writes I've got David Ortiz up my squad has done nothing. Should I wait when did you -- what you could now can I ask what you've you're limited to one bench position. You can just leave him there away from the start hitting he had a nice little outing here triple two for 42 RBI. Yeah I know you're looking -- and a triple for Big Papi he'd been headed into the gambling -- that rattles around a little bit I didn't get the third. Fact of the matter is I think the swings is getting there the wrist injury doesn't think it bothered him have been a little slow with the bat speed this morning little tentative. Think over time. Not that starts to change and what do you know the Yankees were on the late for this coming weekend. I think you'll probably have a little bit more juice flowing to get as bad around this week so he's not going to turn into another small -- Now I don't think it's gonna happen quite that quickly from a -- although we could put them side by side you might be be able to confuse about it but go back to the matter is too early to cut the catalyst he's going to come back and kill you feed him."

" Sox fans hope you're right that's going to do it for this edition of the -- fix presented by NAPA Auto Parts Napa. Get the good stuff for more fantasy videos keep a log on foxsports.com.

I'll talk about first timlin -- the biggest case of all the arbitration eligible players in 2010. The setup though in 2008 when Ryan Howard . That gave the Philadelphia Phillies . And 110 million dollar arbitration victory the biggest victory in history of arbitration . For first time eligible player. Tim Lincecum is soon gonna break that record once he goes into the boardroom what the club estimated they limited number of eight million dollars. The players -- number of thirteen million dollars. Now the arbitration panel of three when they're done here in the case we'll have to either pick eight million or thirteen million they can't pick a number in between. But it Ryan Howard . He went and it is award with -- MVP and a rookie of the year award. And he got ten million. Tim Lincecum is gonna walk into the room with two Cy Young awards. Our record of 4217. You walk is -- to award a record of 4217. I think he's gonna get paid more than Ryan Howard hit the San Francisco Giants are forced to walk into the arbitration room they have three alternatives. The first one is to settle the case in the Rome. If they can get a deal
we think he should be the highest paid pitcher ever -- arbitration . We agree this guys want to -- down so we agree his record of forty and seventeen is amazing. It's 676. Strikeouts as a star but then make it an industry case and try to argue the fact. That eight million dollars a year will be more than an. Any pictures ever made history of baseball the first time eligible and that that numbers more appropriate than another record which would be thirteen million dollars. A look at the arbitration records over the last five years the owners have won seventeen case that the players have won ten. Does that mean the clubs have won. No it doesn't the players have actually won because every year they win that one case. That changes the entire market for the next class the following year so even this year they lose all cases if they win the Tim Lincecum case. They really well one of arbitration . Because the bar will look instead at a new level for all future arbitration cases. -- the history of salary arbitration . It started in 1974. When Reggie Jackson broke the record in arbitration waited about a 135000. Dollars. Then in 2008 Ryan Howard get the ten million dollars award and in 2010. Might call that Tim Lincecum gonna win his case. At thirteen million dollars so we've gone from a 13501974. To thirteen million in 2010. That's arbitration process has worked for the players.
