DUSTIN MCGOWAN RUMORS
Fantasy Baseball – The Walking Dead
In honour of the return of AMC’s The Walking Dead, I thought it would be a good opportunity to look at baseball’s walking wounded. These players are coming off injury riddled seasons, and are expected to play prominent roles for their teams. Are they worthy of a spot on your roster, or should we ignore them and make sure they don’t come back to bite us?

The McGowan Scenario and others…
Dustin McGowan recently threw his 6th bullpen session without feeling any pain in his shoulder. Assuming that Dustin can be healthy when the season start, the Jays will have some really tough decisions to make.
