Mike Lowell. It wouldn't be the first time Lowell crushed expectations. He's already racked up 22 ribbies.
Ryan Franklin. Nine scoreless innings and the closer job in St. Louis.
Scott Downs. A similarly excellent performance and a closer job for Downs. Waiver wire diligence can pay off for saves.
Asdrubal Cabrera. He's hitting .323 with three steals. I'm not quite ready to raise expectations but I don't oppose the pickup.
Yadier Molina. A decent-hitting catcher is so hard to find, especially with a lot of top guys struggling to start 2009.
Dexter Fowler. Five swipes in a game will get you picked up, even if they were against Chris Young. Fowler seems like a ROY candidate, and needs to be owned.
Jarrod Washburn. Had his first rough start of the year last time out. Chances are he's the same old Washburn.
Jason Kubel. Off to a blazing 15 RBI start, no reason not to put him in your OF. He did hit 20 HR last year.
Wandy Rodriguez. I liked Wandy coming in, but I didn't expect a 1.69 ERA. Zero HR won't last, but his 47.5% groundball rate is a career best. The 5.91 hits per nine innings isn't close to sustainable. Wandy is obviously worth owning but you might consider shopping him around just to see what's being offered.
Nyjer Morgan. You have to love 16 runs and 6 steal with a .321 AVG.
