Late Season Pickups

September 12th, 2008 kNuke Posted in Fantasy Baseball | No Comments »

I haven’t had a Fantasy Baseball post in a few months.  ACL rehab has taken up a lot of my time, but don’t think I’ve stopped updating my Fantasy Baseball roster.

If you’re still paying attention to Fantasy Baseball at this point in the year, you’re probably in contention for the title.  At this point, you should be taking long looks at your Standings, focusing on important categories that you have to protect or go after.

Here’s my late season adds and the categories they impact.  Note that all hitter pickups should help in the R category.

• Elijah Dukes: HR, RBI, SB
• Lastings Milledge: HR, SB
• Andre Ethier: AVG, RBI
• Mike Jacobs: HR
• Shin-Soo Choo: AVG, RBI
• Rajai Davis: SB
• Jerry Hairston Jr: SB, AVG
• Jay Bruce: HR
• Joey Votto: HR
• Taylor Teagarden: HR
• Chris Snyder: HR
• Brandon Morrow: W, K
• Max Scherzer: K
• Chris Young: W, ERA, WHIP
• Joe Nelson: SV
• Luis Ayala: W, SV
• George Sherill: SV

Hope these pickups will help you win a category or two and your league.
