Add Koji Uehara

    - Heading into the 6th week of the season, many starters who have gotten off to rough starts have bounced back nicely (Verlander, Volquez, Cliff Lee) while some pitchers have yet to hit their stride (Nolasco, Hamels, Lester).  With most owners in the need for starters, one intriguing option is Koji Uehara of the Baltimore Orioles.  Koji comes over from Japan, where he spent the past 10 seasons, where he posted a 112-62 record and 3.01 ERA.  He collected 1,376 K’s to just 206 walks.  He was the winner of Japan’s version of the Cy Young in 1999 and 2002.   As for this year, his command has been just as good so far, posting 32 K’s and just 7 walks.  If he continues to post solid K:BB ratios, Uehara could be a decent addition to any roster.
