Evan Longoria

So, I was too busy (drinking) on Friday night to check on fantasy baseball. When I checked Saturday afternoon, I discovered that Longoria had been called up by the Rays after they placed Willie Aybar on the DL. I raced to each of my leagues and found that Longoria was still available in only one league. Disappointment.

Obviously, if he's still available in any of your leagues, grab him immediately. Unfortunately, though, someone has probably grabbed him by now.

Ever the optimist, I can look at it this way: If he does well, then I look smart for recommending him repeatedly. If he does poorly, then my fantasy opponents suffer, thus increasing my chances of winning. It's a win-win. (Or lose-lose, if you take the flip-side of those arguments.)
