Young's upside over someone like T. Jones. Would the "No. 1 pick" next year net you solid value? I have a good feeling about Ray Rice as well. I'd probably hold onto Young, but if you wanted to do one of those 3 trades, I'd do the Rice/pick one. I wouldn't go nuts trying to acquire J. Campbell. His YPA is underwhelming, and he's now learning a completely new system, so I expect some bumps in the road this year. With all those rookie WRs, maybe he'll be big down the road, but I expect that to be 2-3 years away.

No joke. Donald - I know, I know. I'm planning on getting those rankings out this week.

It must really suck to be a Giants fan, if only because their intra-divisional rivalry and the reluctance to trade b/t them prevents SF from robbing LA blind like every other team. Wouldn't it rock to trade Zito for Loney and LaRoche, or Lowry for Kemp? Speaking of, here are some deals I'm shocked HAVEN'T happened yet: Matt Kemp for Paul Byrd Matt Kemp for Bronson Arroyo Clayton Kershaw for Raul Ibanez Clayton Kershaw, Scott Elbert and Josh Bell for Manny Ramirez James Loney for Mike Timlin and Sean Casey Andy LaRoche for Jason Marquis Chad Billingsley and Scott Elbert for Roy Oswalt I just thought of those off the top of my head.

It's arguable that Takashi Saito had better numbers than him despite being given the least amount of save opportunities in baseball. I have no problem dropping Homer Bailey after that pathetic performance. I wonder if we've seen Carl Crawford's better days from a fantasy perspective. DDD,
