Agreed…but not all is lost…stash him on your bench (or DL) if you have room…he may become an attractive option again down the road if an injury takes away another third baseman.  

Well, Chipper has decided to get his cortisone shots and try to play through it.  He went 1-5 last night.  I would try to trade him, but yahoo has that little yellow box with the star next to it signaling new news.  So I think I have to wait for that to disappear.  I know I am not interested when I see the words "tear" and "knee" in the same sentence concerning an athlete…..

Great analogy, but the only problem is with that little news flash next to Jones name on the yahoo site, people are going to think receiving him is like getting their fingers smashed when you slam shut the window, lol.

So I finally am trying to trade Jones.

In one league, I just put notice out there that he is available.  I'm so loaded with that team I don't  even know what I want for him, lol.

The other league, I went with the overkill.  I am loaded at 3B what with Bautista and Beltre, so I combined Chipper Jones and Alex Gordan.  Asked 6 different teams for one of their relief pitchers…good ones…like Brian Wilson, Papelbon, etc.

Two starters for a one category player?  You would think it would work (two of these teams are DREADFUL at 3B).  But people do get scared of making a mistake…..
