The Daily Dirt for April 7th

It can be tough trying to find stolen bases in AL or NL only fantasy baseball leagues if you don’t find them in the draft or in the auction. One guy that might be out there on the waiver wire in AL only leagues is Sam Fuld of the Tampa Bay Rays who swiped three bases today giving him four for the season. He is going to get a ton of playing time as the extra outfielder, but manager Joe Maddon tends to play a lot of different lineups so he could get another 10 or so steal the rest of the year or until rookie Desmond Jennings is called up. If you are looking for a middle infielder in NL only leagues, check to see if Wilson Valdez of the Philadelphia Phillies is available. It is only a stop gap measure until Chase Utley returns, but he is getting consistent at bats after Luis Castillo was released. In NL only leagues, it is often getting the most at bats in a season that is going to propel you up the categories and standings rather that how many stud players you have. Tsuyoshi Nis...
