If you've been paying attention (and word is, at least three of you have), you'll notice that this column's risk tolerance increases as the season progresses. That's by design. By this point in the season, there are few tried-and-true pickups available, and time is running out on the season. If you're in first place and just looking for someone to fill a gap, keep this in mind. If you're chasing the leader, be willing to assume some risk.

Who's on second (no, who's on first)? We'll be answering that this week. It's a thin position with some decent opportunities for value.
