Adam Wainwright was beginning to wonder if he would ever throw a complete-game shutout. "It was starting to be one of those things that looms in the back of your mind," he said. It took 97 major league starts and 138 in the minor leagues but Wainwright finally conquered the elusive goal, allowing only two hits to lead the St.

Rowland-Smith to start for Seattle today
Posted in Fantasy Baseball by DuckSnort 579 days ago (http://ownersedge.fanball.com)
The News Ryan Rowland-Smith draws the start today for Seattle against the Angels in place of Doug Fister, who's dealing with shoulder fatigue, according to the Everett Herald. Our View Fister could be back next week, so this could be a one-time thing for RRS until he's relegated back to the bullpen. He'll be limited to between 75-90 pitches today, and we don't see any reason to use him for the spot start.

The News Jonathan Broxton shut the door on the Braves Friday night with a perfect ninth inning in a 5-4 win. Our View The save was Broxton's 14th of the season and he fanned two batters in the inning to up his K total to 37 in 25.1 innings pitched. He now has nine saves in his last ten outings (going 9-for-9) and has allowed just one run over that stretch.

The News Yunel Escobar went 3-for-4 with three RBI in Friday's 5-4 loss to the Dodgers. Our View Escobar has has a miserable season so far, so it was nice to see him break out on Friday. His average jumped from .224 to .238 and he upped his RBI total to 16. He has yet to hit a homer this season, but is batting well over .400 in his last ten games. Start him now that he's getting hot.

The News Eric Chavez (neck) hopes to start working out with the A's in Oakland on Monday, according to the San Francisco Chronicle. Our View This is positive news, though he still remains out indefinitely. Chavez has always been an injury waiting to happen (unless, of course, the injury already happened) and is far from the player he once was. There's little to no reason to own him at this point.
Mets will activate Niese to start today's game

The News The Mets will activated Jonathon Niese (hamstring) from the DL before today's game against the Marlins, according to MLB.com. Our View He'll start against Florida and could be worth adding in NL-only leagues, though we'd refrain from playing him for now. No word yet on what the Mets' corresponding roster move will be.
