FAAB Factor - NL: Hanson Back in Business

National League FAAB: 8/19/12


Starting Pitching:

Jhoulys Chacin: Chacin (pectoral), profiled last week, gets another mention, as he will be activated off the disabled list and start Tuesday against the Mets. He last pitched in the majors on May 1 and has been sidelined since then with an irritated nerve in his right pectoral. He made his last rehab start Thursday, allowing one run and five hits over seven innings, while throwing 91 pitches, 55 for strikes, with his fastball sitting in the low-90s. For now, the Rockies are expected to go with a five-man rotation, but given that they want to use a four-man staff, it will be interesting to see who will be the odd man out. Our money is on Tyler Chatwood. Mixed: $4; NL: $11
