+/- (4/21-4/24)
The Dummy Hoyas
+John Danks, -Hunter Pence
+Joey Votto, -Mike Jacobs
+Hunter Pence, -Paul Konerko
+Jonathan O. Sanchez, -Francisco Liriano
Timing for Dummies:
Mike Jacobs -> Period 2 -> Free Agent -> .427/.826 (3 HR, 5 RBI)
Mike Jacobs -> Period 3 -> Free Agent -> .348/.682 (1 HR, 4 RBI)
Mike Jacobs -> Period 4 -> Dumb Hoy -> .222/.250 (0 HR, 0 RBI)
Needless to say, the rarely patient GM of the Hoyas jettisoned Jacobs for Joey. Alas, Votto, as a Free Agent last week, posted a .286/.857 (3 HR, 9 RBI) line. And this week to date he's posted a .417/.727 (1 HR, 2 RBI) line -- all of it prior to becoming a full-time Hoya. Let's see if Votto saved any of that patented Canadian sock for the Hoyas.
In other big Dummy news...Breaking...Francisco Liriano dropped. For Jonathan O. Sanchez. Developing...
Time to see who is Number 1 on Waiver Priority...Why...it's The Dummy Hoyas, who are in a good position in the next 24 hours should they have second thoughts...
The Wookie Squirts
+Mark DeRosa, -Gabe Kapler
While ex-Greenville Drive manager Gabe Kapler may have enjoyed a blazing first three weeks (.390/.737 -- 4 HR, 13 RBI), the Squirts got the following line from him: [insert big blank space]. Not willing to find out if Kapler's hot start will continue (hint: it won't), the Squirts give Mark "Supa" Rosa a roster slot. Here's a guy who is eligible at 2B, 3B, OF (and, of course, DH) and before the end of the year possibly at 1B, while posting a .391/.486 line to date. Nice.
The Mookie Dribblers
+Dioner Navarro, -Mike Napoli
The Dribblers originally drafted Deener and presumably enjoyed all 9 ABs (.333/.444) before Navarro's hand was stepped on. The Dribblers then settled on Plan Napoli, which consisted of 30 ABs and a .250/.433 line. Now back to the originally-scheduled catcher...
Medford Crackers
+Matt Garza, -Nate McClouth
Undoubtedly hearing word that Garza was soon to come off the DL after a bout of radial nerve irritation, the Crackers jumped up and ran to the nearest computer to pick him back up before anyone else snapped up that sweet sweet 9.00 ERA/.353 BAA/2.13 WHIP, 0-for-2 in QS pitching.

I'm not sure if Canadian patents are applicable in the US. Sucks with Montreal out of the league now.
Dummy Today. Dummy Tomorrow.
