Escobar has double-digit possibility, but I don't think I would start him over anyone on your roster. He's a great player to have, though, for his multi-position eligibility.

I'd definitely look into trading Gonzalez, though. You should get something decent for him.

Team update (on account of boredom) - here's what it looks like now:

C Soto
1B A. Gonzalez
2B Cano
3B Gordon
SS Y. Escobar
OF Vlad
OF Matsui
OF Quentin
Util Fielder
BN Hart
BN Bourn
BN Bruce

SP Billingsley
SP Marcum
RP Papelbon
RP K-Rod
P Lyon
P Smoltz
P Wellemeyer
BN Laffey
BN Oswalt
DL Peavy

I've got Quenting playing just about every day, with Bruce, Matsui, Hart, and Vlad all rotating in and out based on matchups. I'm trying to consolidate a bit and trade two OFs and Wellemeyer for David Wright. If Fielder would just hurry up and start hitting, my offense would be great. Same for Vlad. I need Peavy back to really boost my pitching staff, and a healthy Smoltz at closer would help as well (particularly when it comes to trade openings). I'm in 6th, 7 GB. 4-8 are within 1.5 games of each other...
