Fantasy talk: Weekly adds/drops

Add


Andrew Cashner- The fireballer was dominating in Triple-A and was solid in his first start with the Padres last night. He struck out 9 batters in 6 1/3 innings. Since he pitches in PETCO park, his numbers will likely continue to get better. Pick him up right now he has the potential to be something really special.

Ike Davis- Davis has had a rough year so far but has really heated up lately. He has been hitting home runs and getting plenty of extra base hits. Since his overall numbers are so bad, you can probably get him for practically nothing. My advice to you would be get him, ride the hot streak, and watch him closely. He may cool down eventually.

Tyler Moore- I know what your thinking. Who is Tyler Moore? Moore is a left fielder for the Nats who has been seeing a lot of playing time lately. This week he went into Coors field and hit home runs in back to back games and collected 5 RBI's. His batting average is now .339 and he would be a nice waiver claim. He has some pop to his bat, hitting 31 home runs in Triple-A in both 2010 and 2011.

Sell


Wade Miley- Miley has been awesome this season but his minor league track record shows that he is playing way over his head. He currently has a 1.79 walks per nine innings ratio, and that is great but his minor league numbers show a different trend. Sell him to an owner who just looks at the numbers and ignores the fact that he is still a rookie and hitters will figure him out.

Tony Campana- Campana has brought a lot of energy to the Cubs, but will be losing playing time now to David DeJesus, who is now shifting to center field.

Bobby Parnell- Parnell has been great this season, but has been a streaky player in the past. He is currently the Mets' closer with Frank Francisco on the disabled list, but it is unlikely that Parnell will keep his job when he returns. Sell high on Parnell to an owner who believes that Parnell will keep his closer job for the rest of the season.
