#1 \| 88 days ago RenegadeLG (+)	+1 I was about to take Willingham because Braves and visitors alike are hitting the ball all over the place @ Turner, but Chuck James absolutely owns him. Maybe I should stop paying attention to matchups, didn't help me last night. It's pretty hard for a good hitter to go 0-4, regardless of past pitcher dominance. I'll just shut up until I'm back on top. 1. Michael Young (TEX) @ DET 2. 7-9 3. Baltimore @ Seattle

#2 \| 88 days ago Jon (+)	When I try to look at my answers, they show up blank, and it won't let me make a pick. I don't care about the points really, but so I can keep my streak alive, I would like it to be known that I am taking Chase Utley (even though I don't like him). Can you hook me up, Tom?

That's the game and matchup that was scheduled for today (did that sound good? I just yanked that one out of thin air). Emil Brown was leading the team in some offensive category when I made the poll. I can't remember which one. I've got to throw some new faces in there every once in a while. Since no one is making any requests, I've got to do a colon cleansing to find some new meat every now and then. 1. Jeff Keppinger (CIN) vs HOU 2. 7-9 3. Cubs @ Colorado

Gotta keep us on our toes! Do it by position some days? Make an all pitcher one. That will shrink the list a bit. 1. Chase Utley (PHI) @ MIL 2. 7-9 3. St Louis @ Pittsburgh

In case everyone forgot (and by the reaction so far, they have), I do take requests. Within reason of course. I finally got one from cd0g23 today. That helps me out. I don't have to think so much everyday about who to put on each poll. And anyone that knows me well knows that I don't like to think a whole lot. 1. Jeff Keppinger (CIN) vs HOU 2. 7-9 3.

If you put Owings on a hitting streak poll on a day he starts, I'd quite possibly take him.

He's not a player I'd ever want to depend on, but he can bring some things to the table. 1. Chase Utley (PHI) @ MIL 2. 10-12 3. Baltimore @ Seattle
