Hamilton Back With A Bang; Wells, Johnson Down


Twenty-seven teams dropped Josh Hamilton after he went down with a fractured small humerus bone on April 12, thereby ensuring that he wouldn’t take up valuable roster space. Only five teams kept him. Those five teams, though, have to be happy that Hamilton finally returned Monday night and immediately hit a home run in his first at bat. Now the 27 teams who dropped him have to consider putting him back on their rosters. And we happen to have a handy form to help you do just that.

Speaking of which, teams with Vernon Wells or Josh Johnson might want to consider dropping these guys ... they’re both on the 15-day DL. Just sayin’.

Harmon's SLO Town Trolley Dodgers Getting Greedy


Kyle Harmon, a league newcomer recruited by Kirby Puckett's Good Eye owner Brandon Oliverria, is getting a little big for his britches ... and just a little greedy. Kyle’s SLO Town Trolley Dodgers are in 12th place Overall and lead the Arugula Division. But that’s apparently not enough for Kyle, so he just made the second league trade of the season by dropping Andre Ethier (0 HRs, 5 Ks) and picking up Nelson Cruz (4 HRs, 5 Ks). Attaboy, Kyle ... that’s the way this game is played. Keep the pressure on the rest of the league.

Meanwhile, league owners should be aware the Rockies pitcher Ubaldo Jimenez (1 K, 2 HRs) has recently been placed on the 15-day DL with a thumb issue. In addition, Evan Longoria (0 HRs, 1 K), Mat Latos (0 K, 0 HRs) and Zack Greinke (0 Ks, 0 HRs) are also on the 15-day DL. Just sayin’.
