MICHAEL FIERS RUMORS
Rank Relief: Michael Fiers should stay in the rotation…maybe
McCutch going clutch in extras….walk off
My friend asks me on Google Talk today where I was valuing Andrew McCucthen. Now, walk off home runs aren’t a category in any fantasy league I know, but if they were, you’d be happy with Cutch tonight. This was your basic late inning relief no out walk off home run.

With a Brewers starting rotation dealing with an early season-ending injury to Chris Narveson, then Marco Estrada pulling his quad rounding first, Michael Fiers...
Milwaukee's Fiers has a blue-flame passion
MILWAUKEE It was nearing 2:30 a.m. in early January 2008, as Michael Fiers fought to keep his eyes open. He stared into the darkness of the Florida Turnpike ahead of him, continuing to drive on, while his vision grew ever hazier.
He already knew this had been a bad decision, choosing to avoid the traffic by driving through the night, rather than waiting till morning to begin his...
