Player Notes
March 16, 2010
Carlos Silva tossed four scoreless innings against the Rangers on Tuesday and earned his second win of the spring.

Our View:Silva allowed just two hits and struck out three in his four frames and put together his second straight solid start of the spring. He was blasted in his first start, but has rebounded nicely since. Still, don't expect him to bounce back enough overall in 2010 to be a worthwhile fantasy asset.

Carlos Silva was sharp in his second spring start on Thursday, tossing three scoreless innings in an 8-7 win over the Padres.

Our View:Silva was blasted in his first spring start, but fared much better on Thursday. He allowed four hits and a walk over three frames, but it will take much more than this for potential owners to forget about his last four miserable seasons. Leave him alone of draft day.

Carlos Silva was lit up for six earned runs on seven hits over a mere two innings of work in Saturday's preseason loss to the White Sox. He had no walks and two strikeouts.

Our View:Silva held a dismal 8.60 ERA over 30.1 innings with the Mariners in 2009, and that was while pitching his home games at pitcher-friendly Safeco Field. He is not a good fantasy pick with his new club, especially since he will now he pitching at launching pad Wrigley Field.
