Sleeper Alert: Brad Thompson, RP, STL

With Adam Wainwright's move to the rotation. It appears Brad Thompson has fallen into the 8th inning role. He is not going to overpower anyboy but if he can continue to make people ground out, he is going to be useful in leagues that count holds and could be worth a late round flier in NL only leagues because the Cardinals, at this point, can't afford to pull Wainwright or Looper out of the rotation. If a trade changes that scenerio, toss him back into the FA pool. But for now, he is worth a late round gamble.
