Had 3 pitchers going last night - Hudson, Oswalt & Ohka. My only concerns going into the night were whether or not Oswalt would turn it around and whether or not I timed Ohka right or not. Well, of course my sure thing Hudson gets shelled. Luckily for me though both Oswalt & Ohka pitched great games so it still was all in all a decent night. I love this game. One more thing, what's up with Jones being allowed a save op in Cincy? Graves is supposed to get a save every single night. He obviously has me spoiled.

Sooner, I had Graves as a $6 keeper in my NL-only league. I loved him going into this season, but I sure didn't expect 20 saves before the end of June. He's been outstanding. They never should've attempted to turn him into a starter last season; he simply doesn't have the stuff for that role. But he's a good closer.

He was a 14th round pick for me so I think he was worth it. He simply did not have the stuff to be a starter but he has the mindset to be a closer for sure. I can't recall a team ever getting this many save chances in such a short period though and obviously the law of averages says it has to end but since I'm a Reds fan and Graves owner I am certainly enjoying it while it lasts.

The way I look at it is if he gets 25 saves, he's worth the $6 I paid to keep him and he's only 5 saves from that which means I'll be getting bonus production from him for a good portion of the season. That makes him a very good investment as does you getting him in the 14th round. Great value pick there obviously.

I would just like to say.....how underrated is Steve Trachsel? We got him in the 19th round and he has just been SOLID. Definitely one of our better picks.

Gekko, just a quick question, have you ever uttered a positive thought or is your pathetic life devoted to being negative about everything and everybody?
