potpourri

i would like to announce publicly that the phillies beat the cardinals 6-0 tonight.

also... it was moyer who got the win... which is great... but also sobering since he's won his last two outings... right after i dropped him from my fantasy team.

i have a bit of a fantasy team predicament. the guys on my dl are coming back... and i'm not sure who to keep and who to drop.

rich harden is sort of back. he pitched an inning tonight... and will continue to stay in the 'pen until he's strong enough to return to the starting pitching position. so what the heck do i do with him in the meantime? i can't drop one of my starters for him now... b/c i need their wins. i can leave him on the dl sort of illegally for awhile... but then i'll have to drop someone or drop him. right now... my other starters are: hamels, harang, cain, and bonderman. cain's been pitching the worst, i think. but will harden return to form? who knows.

aramis ramirez is back. i picked up brandon inge. ["ginger" as amy brandt calls him... b/c curtis granderson doesn't need the extra "gr" at the start of his name.... and "inge" doesn't really work for a last name... so she added the g and r to make "ginger."] ramirez is too good to not play. but inge is playing well... so i don't necessarily wanna get rid of him. hafner is my utility player... and while i certainly don't wanna drop him... he's been sucking lately. so i could bench him and play ramirez there. shoot... but i still need to drop someone. OH! i just got my solution. tejada's going on the dl. that opens up a place on the roster. he was out for a few days and i picked up orlando cabrera... who's been playing well. so tejada's been on the bench anyway.

posednik is hitting like a machine in the minors in preparation for coming off the dl. i'll prolly keep him and drop lofton, who i picked up to give me stolen bases. but... i usually have him on the bench in favor of jermaine dye... who's also been sucking.

so... i could ditch lofton, bench dye... and play posednik. bench hafner. put tejada on the dl. and drop cain.

good moves? or stupid moves?
