The Day in Review

A lot went on today, so lets get right to it.

Injury News:
  • Eric Gagne is out until further notice due to a stiff shoulder. No word on whether a DL-stint is possible.
  • Chris Young was drilled in the nose by a line drive, but it sounds like he will be okay. Ouch. Just, ouch.

Notable Performances:
  • Joba Chamberlain pitched two scoreless in relief, representing the beginning of the end for his role out of the bullpen. Just as the young reliever begins his transition into a starter, Dontrelle Willis was activated and placed in the bullpen.
  • Bartolo Colon pitched only five innings, but was pretty effective throwing in the mid-nineties with his heater. Let the commentaries begin.
  • Dana Eveland threw a complete game against the Rays, striking out five and giving up one run. He could make a fantasy impact well into the summer. Darrell Rasner, who I also featured as a spot start, through seven scoreless for the win against the O's.
  • Ben Sheets also threw a complete game, this time against the Pirates. He's been the only hope for the Brewers pitching, and has delivered thus far. 
  • Vladimir Guerrero hit two homeruns. Some might say he was due, but as a Guerrero owner I worry that he is far past his peak. Jermaine Dye pretty much did the same thing, with the same sentiment.
  • Ryan Howard, on the other hand, also went deep twice, but I wish I could buy low off someone.

It's disappointing that Webb finally lost, and I'm sure Pete is lamenting in some cold, dark room. That isn't important, but the rest is what you need to know for the day.
