But, for strictly 2007, is he better? &nbsp;He had a rocky start and may not even be in the rotation. &nbsp;Reyes has to be written in the rotation in pen for St. Louis, as they have few options. &nbsp;And without the DH, he's looking pretty good.</p><p>Thoughts?</p> <fieldset class="poll-box"> <legend>Poll</legend> <h5 class="poll-title">Who would you rather have on your fantasy team</h5> <div id="poll_container_9383_698862604" class="poll_container"> <div class="poll_option clearfix"> <div class="poll_option_percentage" style="display:none">42%</div> <div class="poll_option_result"> <h5>Anthony Reyes</h5> <div class="poll_option_bar"><span class="vote_count">73</span> votes</div> </div> </div> <div class="poll_option clearfix"> <div class="poll_option_percentage" style="display:none">57%</div> <div class="poll_option_result"> <h5>Matt Garza</h5> <div class="poll_option_bar"><span class="vote_count">97</span> votes</div> </div> </div> <p class="poll-total-votes"><strong>170</strong> votes | <span class="poll-has-closed">Poll has closed</span> </p> </div> <script> FastInit.addOnLoad(function(){ new SBN.Poll('poll_container_9383_698862604').animateResults({renderImmediately:true}); }); </script> </fieldset>
