Pickups
AL ONLY
Garrett Olson (Orioles), SP: Olson has been solid in his first two starts and he put up good numbers in Triple-A. He might not stay in the rotation long, but pitch him while he is doing well.
Joey Devine (A’s), RP: Devine has pitched very well out of the bullpen and could close if Huston Street got injured. He has a 0.68 ERA and 15/3 K/BB ratio, so he’ll at least help in ERA and WHIP.
Jesse Litsch (Blue Jays), SP: He has exhibited great control so far with seven walks in 40 1/3 innings and is 4-1 with 4.24 ERA. He has allowed seven home runs, though.
NL ONLY
Chris Iannetta (Rockies), C: Iannetta received five straight starts over Yorvit Torrealba the past week. He is batting .345 with three home runs and 14 RBIs.
Blake DeWitt (Dodgers), 3B: DeWitt has been very hot and kept Andy LaRoche in the minors. He could even keep the job when Nomar Garciaparra is healthy, if he ever is.
Ryan Ludwick (Cardinals), OF: He hasn’t played regularly, but he produces every time he does. He has seven home runs and could get more playing time.

12 team mixed roto league - Garko and Cueto just got dropped. Do you like Garko better than Hermida or Cueto better than Snell?
I'd take Hermida and Snell. Stick with them.
Cueto is 6th in the Majors for K's
