The Doctor is in...

Question #1: Call it. Dodgers, Rockies or Giants for the division? – Randy, Clyo, GA

Randy: Dr. Roto is going to take the Dodgers for the division and the Rockies for the wildcard. Come find me when the playoffs start for Dr. Roto's playoff preview.

Question #2: Who is your best bounce back candidate for next year? – Michael, Corcoran, CA

Michael: Tough one here, as there are a few guys who need to bounce back in a big way next year. The obvious bounce back guy is Manny Ramirez. Many people drafted Manny in the hopes of getting 40 HR and 120 RBI. He'll be lucky to provide half of that this year. But Manny is still Manny which means that he is one of the top hitters to ever play the game. He will bounce back for sure. The other guy I have for you is another Ramirez--Aramis Ramirez. He's a guy with huge power potential who could not stay healthy this year. Give him an off season to get in shape and he will shine next year. His power numbers have been down, but he is hitting around .320 for the year. Not too shabby.

Question #3: In my league we get a 5 point bonus for having the Cy Young Winner on your roster (as well as bonus points for a few other awards). Do you think that Greinke actually has a shot at it? – David, Baker City, OR

David: Dr. Roto has never heard of these rules before. Do you lose points if your player gets suspended for steroid use? Yes, Greinke is right there for the CY Young. He stands a good shot at it so long as he finishes strong.

Question #4: If Tony LaRusa and Dave Duncan leave for another team, would you start picking up middle of the road pitchers on that team under the theory that Duncan will "Piniero" them? –Mark, Baird, TX

Mark: Love to see that you remembered Dr. Roto's love for Dave Duncan! You better believe I would follow LaRussa/Duncan anywhere. If they went to Japan tomorrow, Dr. Roto would start scouting the Chunichi Dragons and the Orix Blue Wave!

Question #5: I just picked just up Juan Pierre for a box of peanuts under the assumption that he will be playing in a starting role for someone else next year. Do you agree with that logic or am I wasting my peanuts? – Beverly, Capitola, CA

Beverly: I like your thinking here. If Pierre can ever land a starting spot again he's got the average and speed to be worth keeping as a last protect. You didn't waste your peanuts here, but I am glad you didn't throw in a hot dog...you would have over paid.
