Lyle Spencer, of MLB.com, reports free-agent SP John Lackey (Angels) could be seeking something similar to San Francisco Giants SP Barry Zito's seven-year, $126 million deal, according to the New York Post's George King. If Lackey drives the price that high, it is unlikely the Los Angeles Angels of Anaheim will retain him. http://www.fantasysp.com/player/mlb/Barry_Zito/645644 645644 Tue, 17 Nov 2009 15:48:01 EDT kffl.com http://www.fantasysp.com/player/mlb/Barry_Zito/645644 Daric Barton’s Future In December of 2004, the Oakland Athletics broke up “The Big Three.” The venerated trio of Mark Mulder, Tim Hudson and Barry Zito dissolved in short order, with Mulder shipped to the St. Louis Cardinals and Hudson swapped to Atlanta just two days later.The Mulder deal, of course, has surpassed GM Billy Beane’s wildest expectations.

Zito grimaced and didn't go after the ball, which landed between the mound and third base. He was checked by a trainer and immediately left the game, which was tied at 1. "It didn't feel good," Zito said. "That was as hard as it could be hit. The baseball gods did me good tonight. I didn't die, I didn't break." X-rays were negative. The lefty allowed one run and three hits in 5 1/3 innings, struck out six and walked two. Brandon Medders (5-1) got the last two outs of the sixth.

While Zito's numbers were good enough to return him to fantasy viability, which is in itself no mean feat, he wasn't quite good enough to use in competitive mixed leagues despite pitching to what seems -- at this point in his career -- the best of his ability. Still, for NL-only owners, Zito's 10 wins, 4.03 ERA and 154 strikeouts in 192 innings were a very pleasant surprise. http://www.fantasysp.com/player/mlb/Barry_Zito/562573 562573 Sat, 03 Oct 2009 1:24:15 EDT mlb.com http://www.fantasysp.com/player/mlb/Barry_Zito/562573 Zito solid in no-decision Barry Zito only allowed one earned run on three hits over 5.1 innings in Friday's 7-2 win at San Diego. He had two walks with six strikeouts.

Our View: The game was tied at 1-1 when Zito exited, so he was forced to settle for a no-decision for his solid performance. He trimmed his ERA to 4.03, and allowed two or less earned runs in six of his last nine starts.
