A fantasy baseball blog might not be the best place to voice this concern, but I think ESPN's poor interface may have driven Mark to insanity. If you haven't been to the ESPN league page, give it a look.

It is a good thing that Kate is in the league now, otherwise there wouldn't be anyone in the league who also lives in Boston to check in on Mark's well being...

Anything else we need to worry about? When are we doing the draft lottery?

Trades!
Thought I'd throw together a quick table to summarize the flurry of trades...
| Gets | |
| Mark | Spencer's 5th |
| Bill | Luke's 3rd, Joey Devine |
| Spencer | Bill's 14th, Kevin Youkilis |
| Luke | Carlos Quentin |
| Andrew | Alex Rios |
| Caleb | Chris Davis, Lars Anderson |
Hernandez and Dye On the Block
I'd be happy to move Felix Hernandez (4) or Jermaine Dye (8) to anyone who's interested. Anyone else is available too, except almost definitely not Santana (undrafted) or Beckett (8) and probably not Matsuzaka (6). Nelson Cruz and Jed Lowrie were undrafted, and might be decent values. I'm looking for good draft picks, lower round keepers, or a big bat.

Joey Devine
I've decided to trade Joey Devine instead of Snider to anyone who needs a prospect pick. Here's what ESPN has to say - they have him ranked 9th among AL RP's:
"2009 Outlook: Devine has rebounded quite nicely since being rushed to the big leagues prematurely by the Braves a few seasons ago and giving up some high-profile homers. He came back from an early elbow injury to be absolutely lights-out down the stretch last season, setting himself up to be the likely closer for the A's this year. He'll have to beat out Brad Ziegler but has a leg up entering camp, even though manager Bob Geren says both could close games. His stuff is filthy, and, early Braves stint aside, he can keep his mistakes in the park. If his health holds out, he can be an absolute bargain among closers."
Some mid-round pick gets it done.
Also Papi is more than available if anyone wants him.
