Alay-ing Fears
Alay Soler pitched seven strong innings, allowing one run and striking out seven to lead the Mets to a 4-1 victory over the Dodgers. It's a nice follow up to his poor start vs. Arizona. He threw strikes, tossing 71 of his 108 pitches in the zone.
Carlos Beltran went 2 for 4 with a run scored last night. Met fans who were disappointed with his good season last year (over 20 win shares) should be reveling in his great 2006. He's currently posting a .388 OBA and a .582 slugging percentage.

Is Soler a guy I should pick for my fantasy team, not a keeper league. My league is very competitive and I need another starter. I have done well with Verlander and had Hamel for his first two starts.
i was wondering that myself...obviously his WHIP hasnt been great and he doesnt strike out that many but i think the mets offense shouuld provide a decent amount of wins and hopefully he keeps the era under contronl...this is all assuming he stays in the rotation
right now this is a gamble, but with a lot of upside...
