Kitchen Drawer: Friday’s Random Notes

Jacoby Ellsbury – He has been placed on the DL – he has four ribs with hairline fractures.  Ellsbury is going to miss some time; add Jeremy Hermida in mixed leagues if you haven’t already.  Josh Reddick and Darnell McDonald should be added in AL only leagues as stopgaps – McDonald already has 2 HR.
