O's put Albers on DL; Cabrera activated

 
The Baltimore Orioles put right-hander Matt Albers on the 15-day disabled list Thursday with shoulder inflammation and activated right-hander Fernando Cabrera. Albers will get an MRI exam in Baltimore on Friday, manager Dave Trembley said. Albers lasted just one-third of an inning in an emergency start against the Chicago Cubs on Wednesday. Starting for the sick Brian Burres, Albers faced five batters and threw 21 pitches before he left with shoulder discomfort. [link]

Can You Work the Lineup to Your Fantasy Advantage?

With three Rays on my fantasy team, I was the happy recipient of a healthy portion of the many runs, home runs, and RBI in their 15-3 win over the Marlins yesterday. I got a similar boost from their win on June 9th. The two recent examples have me thinking: is it a viable strategy to pursue multiple players in a single lineup in order to capture as many stats as possible from one baseball team?
