It's Monday!

At the Fantasy Spin Cycle for Athlon Sports, they headline Brian McCann for his great week last week. Mac went 8-18 with two homers and nine RBI, including a four RBI day against the Mets.

Athlon lists Omar Infante as a player to pick up. Infante has been playing everyday due to random injuries around the field, especially Chipper's hamstring, and now LaRoche's back. He is hitless in his last seven at bats but has hovered around .300 all season and is always capable of having back-to-back multi-hit games like he did this past week. Last Tuesday and Wednesday against the Mets, Infante went a combined 5-8 with two RBI. He'll likely see some time this week due to Esco and LaRoche being hurt.

Apparently everybody is voicing in on LaRoche's contract situation. After my post last night that was based on MLBTR's post, I happened to notice today that Carroll Rogers posted on the AJC blog yesterday regarding it as well. It was based on Chipper's comments, and of course he wants his friend back. But he also knows the Braves need LaRoche's power in the lineup. Rogers thinks three years is too much with Freddie Freeman behind him, but as Chipper points out, you never know what might happen there. I think three years would be a solid number for Adam.

Also regarding Adam, his back kept him out last night (and laziness kept me out) and he continues to be DTD. I would guess that we will see a lineup tonight that is similar to last night's: Prado at first, Infante at short, and Conrad/Kelly at second.
