Sit Down Juan Pierre, Manny's Back
Babes Love Baseball —
... waiting patiently for his return to your fantasy roster while the rest of your outfield struggled? You can breathe easy once again. Those 50 games he was forced to sit out after testing positive for stupidity are finally over, as he'll start in the Los Angeles Dodgers outfield Friday against Chad Gaudin and the San Diego Padres. Manny is batting a career .455 (5-for-11) against the right-hander with two homers, three RBIs and 2 walks. Not bad. Continue reading this story at Fantasy Pros 911. ...

... were having trouble with their production at 1B, it wouldn't be a problem to give Kemp a shot and see if he can do it on a regular basis.
So what should they do with Juan Pierre? Who should sit when Manny comes back? Should they make a trade and dump one of their younger, cheaper outfielders for someone like Victor Martinez, who could play either 1st or catcher? What would you do if you were Ned Colletti?

homeruntrot.blogspot.com 6/18/2009 — My latest article is up on MLB Notebook.
