Salfino (AL), Ferris (NL) on May 30-June5

AMERICAN LEAGUE
Put 'em in
Wade Miller, P, Red Sox: His nightmare first inning at Toronto last week has his season stats looking messy. But he's otherwise pitched well since returning from extended rehab and gets two home starts this week (Orioles, Angels).

Dan Johnson, 1B, A's. Johnson was tearing it up in Triple A after doing likewise in 2004 and looks to energize the lethargic Oakland lineup now that Erubiel Durazo is on the disabled list. He'll likely play every day in the near term and ultimately replace Scott Hatteberg.

Bench 'em
Carlos Silva, P, Twins: Striking out a pitiful three batters per nine innings, yet still posting gaudy ERA and ratio numbers because of impeccable control (two walks). He has to be perfect and never is versus the Yankees (12.60 career ERA).

Kevin Millar, 1B, Red Sox: Millar started poorly in 2004 and changed his stance. After starting even worse in 2005, he changed back. He's flailing in the darkness and John Olerud has been activated to steal playing time versus righties.

NATIONAL LEAGUE

Put 'em in
David Eckstein, SS, Cardinals. Scrappy underdog type is hitting .330 in May, and here comes a seven-game week that includes four games in Colorado.

Brad Penny, P, Dodgers. Four of his last six efforts have been very good, and you don't hold the bad turn in St. Louis against him. For the coming week Penny gets two starts, one against the stumbling Cubs offense.

Bench 'em
Aramis Ramirez, 3B, Cubs: He looks all messed up right now, and a road trip to Los Angeles and San Diego isn't any hitter's idea of a vacation.

David Weathers, RP, Reds: Some might jump all over his save last week, but Ryan Wagner is a better bet to close for the final four months. Weathers also has to deal with Colorado next weekend. Don't blow a chunk of free-agent cash here.
