Draft guide update - March 25
Starting pitchers
Chris Capuano (Brewers) - Down $2
John Patterson (Rangers)
The assumption is that Capuano will need another Tommy John surgery and miss the rest of the season. I have slight projection changes coming for the Brewers' other pitchers, but there won't be anything major. I had them all loaded with injuries since my assumption was always that one from the group of Capuano, Dave Bush or Claudio Vargas would be gone by Opening Day.
Third basemen
Scott Rolen (Blue Jays) - Down $3
Willy Aybar (Rays) - Up $1
Evan Longoria (Rays)
Longoria stays at $6. It'll just be a couple of months before he'll provide a return on the investment.
Shortstops
Marco Scutaro (Blue Jays) - Up $1
Brendan Harris (Twins) - Down $3
Nick Punto (Twins)
The Twins' move to keep Matt Tolbert over Jason Pridie concerns me greatly. While they haven't announced anything about second base yet, it's looking more and more likely that Punto will get the majority of the time initially.
