Strategy: PE SP's Jimenez/Litsch/Millwood are
ready to face OP Sabathia/Shields/Outman/Dickey
in today's finale. PE is likely to play conservatively
and monitor the results of OP Sabathia/Shields in
the early games and will deploy Millwood/Jimenez
in the late games only if necessary.
PE has firm control of the championship and will
play defensively with the pitching points and use
all 9 on offense which is a bit of a gambit with BA.
Game Keys: PE SP's Harang/Young/Cain and 2
closers combined to throw 20 innings allowing 7
runs on 27 whip with 15 k's earning 1 W/1 Save.
OP SP's Perkins/Parrish and 3 closers pitched 13
frames yielding 4 runs on 18 whip with 10 k's with
2 Saves. PE offense was silenced going 4/18 with 3
runs, 1 rbi and 1 stolen base. OP's hitters could not
take advantage of PE's dry spell going 7/26 with 3
runs, 2 homer and 6 rbi. PE leads Runs by 19, SB
by 7 and BA by .31. OP leads RBI by 12 & HR by 4.
PE has large leads in K/ERA and could take WHIP
by not using any SP's today. W/Saves are in play.
PE takes a 7-3 lead into today's championship finale.
Final Thoughts:
PE has won the league and enters the league championship.
The Player's Edge participates in many leagues but elected to
follow a team in a Public League to better approximate what might
be faced by a wide majority of players that use the Edge daily.
This team plays in a standard 5x5 scoring format and drafted 7th
of 12 teams in a 21 round on-line live event in late March. We will
follow this team throughout the entire 2008 fantasy campaign.

PE Cain(dropped)/W. Rodriguez-Sat

Strategy: PE SP's Harang/Young/Cain will be used
today with SP's Jimenez/Litsch/Millwood still on tap
for Sunday. PE selected SP's Wakefield/W. Rodriguez
and Marshall as defensive moves to keep them away
from OP. PE dropped Francisco Cordero for Broxton.
Cordero had surgery to remove bone spurs. Broxton
will sit to open a roster spot for Cain as Torre may
opt to give Saito the ball if a save situation arises after
big Brox blew a save last night. OP selected Perkins/
Parrish to start today.
Game Keys: PE SP's Liriano/Morrow and Volstad
combined to throw 15.1 innings allowing 12 runs on
31 whip with 17 k's earning 2 W's. OP SP's Lewis/
Arroyo and 3 closers pitched 15 frames yielding 11
runs on 26 whip with 11 k's with 2 W's and 1 Save.
PE offense continues to hit going 9/22 with 3 runs,
2 homers, 3 rbi and 1 stolen base. OP's hitters went
13/32 with 6 runs, 1 homer and 5 rbi. PE leads Runs
by 19, SB by 6 and BA by .34. OP leads RBI by 7 &
HR by 2. PE leads in 3 pitching points with W/Saves
tied. The match is still very much up for grabs with
Saves/W/K/WHIP in play and BA at risk every day.
PE will carry a 6-2 lead into the final 2 days of play.
Final Thoughts:
PE has won the league and enters the league championship.
The Player's Edge participates in many leagues but elected to

Strategy: PE SP's Harang/Young/Cain will be used
today with SP's Jimenez/Litsch/Millwood still on tap
for Sunday. PE selected SP's Wakefield/W. Rodriguez
and Marshall as defensive moves to keep them away
from OP. PE dropped Francisco Cordero for Broxton.
Cordero had surgery to remove bone spurs. Broxton
will sit to open a roster spot for Cain as Torre may
opt to give Saito the ball if a save situation arises after
big Brox blew a save last night. OP selected Perkins/
Parrish to start today.
Game Keys: PE SP's Liriano/Morrow and Volstad
combined to throw 15.1 innings allowing 12 runs on
31 whip with 17 k's earning 2 W's. OP SP's Lewis/
Arroyo and 3 closers pitched 15 frames yielding 11
runs on 26 whip with 11 k's with 2 W's and 1 Save.
PE offense continues to hit going 9/22 with 3 runs,
2 homers, 3 rbi and 1 stolen base. OP's hitters went
13/32 with 6 runs, 1 homer and 5 rbi. PE leads Runs
by 19, SB by 6 and BA by .34. OP leads RBI by 7 &
HR by 2. PE leads in 3 pitching points with W/Saves
tied. The match is still very much up for grabs with
Saves/W/K/WHIP in play and BA at risk every day.
PE will carry a 6-2 lead into the final 2 days of play.
Final Thoughts:
PE has won the league and enters the league championship.
The Player's Edge participates in many leagues but elected to
follow a team in a Public League to better approximate what might
be faced by a wide majority of players that use the Edge daily.
This team plays in a standard 5x5 scoring format and drafted 7th
of 12 teams in a 21 round on-line live event in late March. We will

Joe Saunders will make a start on Sunday. He was
dealing with kidney stones.
Johan Santana will not pitch Sunday on short rest.

sore hip.
Streamers: (tomorrow's probable starters available as free agents)
Use these players to gain advantage in wins and strikeouts.
Alfredo Acevas- no history vs. Boston but has been
solid in limited starts. 1-0, 1.38/1.00 in 26 frames this
season.
Greg Smith- generally has had a good rookie campaign.
1-0, 0.00/1.00 in 12 innings against Seattle.
Spotties: (tomorrow's position players available as free agents)
Use these players to fill in for injured players and on off days.

2008 Fantasy Football Player's Edge:
http://fantasyfootballplayersedge.blogspot.com
Roster Shuffle:
Ben Sheets will not pitch again, if at all, until Saturday
as he deals with forearm and elbow issues.
Yovani Gallardo is a surprise starter for the Brewers
today.
Cliff Lee, Edinson Volquez and Zach Greinke will
be shut down for the year. Adjust your rotations.
Andy Pettitte has been shut down for this season.
John Maine was activated and is likely to work out
of the bullpen.
Jeremy Guthrie will make his final start of the season
on Sunday.
J.D. Drew returned to action for the Red Sox going 1/2
but left for a pinch runner in the 3rd inning.
Rafael Furcal may get a start over the weekend for
the Dodgers. He's a decent spot play for 1 game.
Chipper Jones pinch hit a 3 run homer last night. He
is day to day.
Mark DeRosa left last night's game with a calf injury.
Willy Taveras is done for the season due to a stress
fracture in his right lower leg.
Cristian Guzman and Ryan Zimmerman were out
last night with the flu. They're day to day in a season
with 4 days remaining. Adjust accordingly.
Streamers: (tomorrow's probable starters available as free agents)
Use these players to gain advantage in wins and strikeouts.
Scott Lewis- basically unscathed this season. He
has no history vs. the White Sox. 3-0, 1.42/1.00
with 14 k's in 19 innings this season.
Chris Volstad- wraps up a solid rookie campaign.
0-0, 1.42/1.26 with 5 k's in 6 innings vs. the Mets
and 3-1, 2.32/1.16 in 31 frames on the road this year.
Spotties: (tomorrow's position players available as free agents)
Use these players to fill in for injured players and on off days.
Jason Kubel- driving Mr. Davies. 5/9, 3 rbi.

Strategy: PE SP's Harden/Moseley, who are on the
bump today, were used for SP streams Morrow and
Acevas. PE has all 5 closers active today. SP Morrow
will team with Volstad/Liriano and 4 closers on Friday.
Putz will sit to create an active roster spot for Morrow.
Acevas will pitch on Saturday. OP added Balester for
Eveland and he will team with Oswalt and 3 closers for
OP today. PE has a full dance on offense today vs. 5
possible actives for OP.
Game Keys: PE SP's Scherzer/Byrd & 1 closer were
able to accumulate 11 innings allowing 6 runs on 21
whip with 9 k's earning 1 Save. OP SP's Eveland &
Myers tossed 9.1 frames yielding 11 runs on 23 whip
with 7 k's. PE offense was hot last night going 16/40
with 6 runs, 1 homer, 6 rbi and 2 stolen bases. OP's
hitters tried to keep pace going 9/27 with 5 runs, 2
homers, 8 rbi and a swipe. PE leads Runs by 13, SB
by 5 and BA by .36. OP has big leads RBI/HR. PE
leads in all 5 pitching categories. PE heads into play
today leading 8-2.
Final Thoughts:
PE has won the league and enters the league championship.
The Player's Edge participates in many leagues but elected to

on Sunday.
J.D. Drew returned to action for the Red Sox going 1/2
but left for a pinch runner in the 3rd inning.
Rafael Furcal may get a start over the weekend for
the Dodgers. He's a decent spot play for 1 game.

Mark DeRosa left last night's game with a calf injury.

PE Moseley(dropped)/Morrow-Thur
PE Harden(dropped)/Acevas-Thur
Strategy: PE SP's Harden/Moseley, who are on the
bump today, were used for SP streams Morrow and
Acevas. PE has all 5 closers active today. SP Morrow
will team with Volstad/Liriano and 4 closers on Friday.
Putz will sit to create an active roster spot for Morrow.
Acevas will pitch on Saturday. OP added Balester for
Eveland and he will team with Oswalt and 3 closers for
OP today. PE has a full dance on offense today vs. 5
possible actives for OP.
Game Keys: PE SP's Scherzer/Byrd & 1 closer were
able to accumulate 11 innings allowing 6 runs on 21
whip with 9 k's earning 1 Save. OP SP's Eveland &
Myers tossed 9.1 frames yielding 11 runs on 23 whip
with 7 k's. PE offense was hot last night going 16/40
with 6 runs, 1 homer, 6 rbi and 2 stolen bases. OP's
hitters tried to keep pace going 9/27 with 5 runs, 2
homers, 8 rbi and a swipe. PE leads Runs by 13, SB
by 5 and BA by .36. OP has big leads RBI/HR. PE
leads in all 5 pitching categories. PE heads into play
today leading 8-2.
Final Thoughts:
PE has won the league and enters the league championship.
The Player's Edge participates in many leagues but elected to
follow a team in a Public League to better approximate what might
be faced by a wide majority of players that use the Edge daily.
This team plays in a standard 5x5 scoring format and drafted 7th
of 12 teams in a 21 round on-line live event in late March. We will
follow this team throughout the entire 2008 fantasy campaign.
All Done!
