Big Names Land on the DL

King Felix of the Mariners is on the DL and for owners this shouldn't be a big surprise since the Mariners are heading nowhere but the basement. He is expected to return to the mound when he is eligible, which is July 8. Owners, don't worry, he'll be back.

Chad Cordero of the Nationals is done for the season and most likely for the first bit of next season. People who are in keeper leagues should abandon ship, wouldn't be a keeper anyways, because he is not going to come back this year. Jon Rauch has the lock on the closers role and owners should be happy since they won't be losing a closer when Cordero returned.

Juan Pierre of the Dodgers is hurt and this is killer for owners. This speed demon is drafted for one reason and that is for his speed. He has 35 steals this season, which ranks him just behind Willy Taveras for the lead, and is hitting a respectable .277. If you are in need of speed go and find Hairston Jr. on the wire. He does the samething as Pierre. Pierre will be gone for at least 4-6 weeks.
