Stretch-Run Pick-Ups

Now that the trade deadline has come and gone, here are some players to target who may be available on your waiver wires:

Chris Carpenter -SP - St. Louis - The former Cy Young winner is back after a long stay on the DL. While it's questionable if he can regain his stellar form, he has a great lineup behind him and the potential rewards far outweigh any risks. Pick him up quickly!

Jerry Hairston - OF - Cincinnati - With the trade of Junior Griffey, the path is clear for Hairston to step into an every day role. With his high average and on-base percentage, plus his stolen base potential, he could play a huge role down the stretch.

More to come shortly!
