Or goatee? Or whatever you want to call it!? Some are dubbing him the “Amish Missile”

We kind of think the bushy red goat makes him look like he should be in the Muppets Electric Mayhem band rather then a pitcher for the Chicago Cubs. Well, whatever it takes for you to try and get an edge on landing that 5th starters spot in the Cubbies rotation Chad !

Currently,  the formerly clean shaven Oakland Athletic’s starter/reliever is in a battle with Sean Marshall who appears to be the frontrunner. Aaron Heilmann and Jeff Samardzija remain long shots for the job.

BONES is Back!

Bones, much like Manny Ramirez – is now locked into a TWO year contract, and will be back suggesting his PICK UP of THE WEEK every week, here at WaiverSharks.com

The voice of Bones, Scott Woodall, contemplated putting the kibosh on our cheesy looking skeletal friend, but when all is said and done – Bones offers solid waiver wire advice, and heck, he works for scale!

This week, Bones is suggesting Chris Volstad, a starting pitcher and deep sleeper, of the Florida Marlins. Chris Volstad, along with Ricky Nolasco, Josh Johnson and Andrew Miller, should make up a winning, albeit young rotation, for the fish this upcoming 2009 Fantasy Baseball season.

In future weeks, you can catch all of Bones’ Pick up of the Week videos on his blog.
