Kyle Drabek's Stock Rises Ahead Of 2010 Draft..


Although he would have been a top-20 prospect coming into the season anyway, with the rumoured Roy Halladay to the Philadelphia Phillies deal on the verge of completion, Kyle Drabek is suddenly a sure fire bet to go in the Top-5 picks of the TGM 2010 Entry Draft. #1 has gotta be Stephen Strasburg, unless MLB.com somehow omits the Washington Nationals' phenom from their rankings (knock on wood Kedro).

God forbid Strasburg is not atop the draft board, there SHOULD be plenty of other high tier talent available:

OF Jason Heyward
C Buster Posey
SP Madison Bumgarner
1B Justin Smoak
3B Pedro Alvarez
3B Mike Moustakas
SP Aroldis Chapman
SS Tim Beckham
OF Desmond Jennings
1B Lars Anderson
3B Brett Wallace
C Jesus Montero
P Phillipe Aumont
1B Yonder Alonso
3B Josh Vitters
C Carlos Santana
OF Mike Stanton

BUT with Kyle Drabek poised as the ace of the future in Toronto, it's hard to imagine him slipping beyond this first round, and inevitably could be gobbled up by either the YBombers (2nd overall) or Eric Byrnes Joints (4th overall). There are also perennial Jays' fiends at #6-8 (Starcity Arms, The Screwballs and Homestead Grays). Any team hoping to acquire Drabek come Draft day had better take him at their first crack at the podium, because he'll be long gone before they get their second go around.

Trade: A Day After Being Traded By The Tigers, Curtis Granderson Is On The Move Again..


The Homestead Grays have traded CF Curtis Granderson ($26) to WinOrLoseHitTheBooze for SP Josh Johnson ($8) and a 5th round pick in 2010.

The 28-year-old Granderson batted .249/.327/.453 last year with 30 HR and 20 SB. He scored 91 runs and drove in 71. Although his batting average dropped for the second consecutive year, he still had a combined 61 extra-base hits (23-8-30). He has an extraodinary combination of extra-base power and speed, evidenced by his 84 XB-hits back in 2007.

Granderson was officially dealt to the New York Yankees today as part of a 3-team trade that also included the Detroit Tigers and Arizona Diamondbacks.

The 25-year-old Johnson had a career year in 2009, posting a 15-5 record with a 3.23 ERA and 1.16 WHIP. He made all 33 starts, logged over 209 IP and posted a 191/58 K/BB ratio.

Johnson has also been mentioned in trade rumors this week, as the Rangers apparently tried to pry him away from the Marlins for Neftali Feliz and Justin Smoak.

Granderson is signed to a 1-year contract, while Johnson is signed for 4 years.

WinOrLoseHitTheBooze's 5th round pick will be the 49th pick in the draft.

Fantasy Points Comparison:

Granderson (560) vs. Johnson (632)

This deal is now official and the corresponding roster moves have been made to the Homestead Grays and WinOrLoseHitTheBooze roster pages.

Trade: Grays unload B.J. Upton's $30

The Homestead Grays and Black Sox have reached an agreement on a two player swap. The trade sees 25-year-old CF B.J. Upton ($30) sent to the Black Sox with the Grays 10th round pick in the 2010 Entry Draft in exchange for 28-year-old SP Carlos Zambrano ($10) and the Black Sox's 3rd round pick in the 2010 Entry Draft.

In Upton, the Black Sox receive the Grays' original 2nd round pick in the Inaugural Draft, a player who hit 24 HR back in 2007 but has combined for just 20 over the last 2 season (1100+ AB). Upton can still run however, posting back-to-back 40 steal seasons in 2008 and 2009. However both his batting average and on-base percentage dropped considerably in 2009, leading to a meagre .686 OPS. Upton joins a crowded but talented outfield for the Black Sox, who already have LF Carlos Quentin, CF Carlos Beltran and RF Jay Bruce under contract.

The Homestead Grays shed significant payroll in the trade, $20 to be exact and add another arm to their arsenal. At "just" 28-years-old, Zambrano seems like he's been around forever. He owns a 105-68 career record but has seen his win total decline in two-straight years from 18 to 14 to 9 in 2009. He did miss a few starts however and finished with a 9-7 record over 28 starts, logging 169.1 IP of 3.77 ERA and 1.38 WHIP baseball. He gave up 78 BB and tallied 152 K's.

Fantasy Points Comparison:

Upton (484) vs. Zambrano (411.5)

This deal is now official and the corresponding roster moves have been made to the Homestead Grays and Black Sox roster pages.
