I’m taking Mr. Niemann tonight to match up with Halladay and keep the Rays in it until the Rays break it open.
Pena
CC… we need some stolen bases tonight
Niemann
BJ, although it seems that every time I DON’T pick him he wins.
That happens to me too! I picked him like 11 times in a row with out a win once.
Carl Crawford.
Longo
For reasons I cannot explain, I am going with Gabe Gross.
longoria
Going with Aybar, I think he can mash something against Doc Holladay.

Jason Bartlett
Longoria…based on no logic at all.
