    Jack Cust

    Is this guy having an insane start or what?

    I gave in and finally added him to my fantasy team. Wish I had done it a couple days ago.

    So did I, watch he wont do anything now......but I dropped Gabe Gross to pick him up and Gross is not doing anything for me anyway.

      Add me to the list of quickly putting him on my fantasy team. Got 2 dingers from him so far. Costed me Carlos Quintin who has done nothing.

        I'm still pissed that the Orioles let him go. We could definitely use his pop, but it really wouldn't matter what he did because Sam Perlozzo is going to lose every game for us.

          I'm glad he's getting a chance in Oakland as a DH. No way were the Padres going to let him play unless they decided to get rid of Cameron or Giles and move Sledge/Cruz to the other outfield spot.

          I didn't add him, but he put up nice numbers in AAA last season and was off to a great start... we better hope the PTBNL is actually worth-while.

            I too picked him up in favor of Adam Wainwright, who has been my worst starter by far. Hopefully he can hit me a couple HR's while Ryan Howard is out.

                If he really has this kind of pop it makes you wonder why he has played for 5 teams in 6 seasons. Whatever the reason if he keeps this up Piazza may not have a job to come back to.

                  Jack Cust = 2207 version of Kevin Maas. Don't think his fast start will hold up

                      He is a AAAA player. He's just having luck but, that will end because he has been a bust for several years now. He has this potential for a long time..I just don't see it lasting

                      Also the padres let him go just like everyone else because they didn't need another fringe player but, Oakland was hurting for some power so they took a chance on Cust because they didn't have to give up a lot.

                        He will probably hit 10 the rest of the year.

                          Yup. For those who were lucky enough to get them on their fantasy teams this past week, congrats. But if you're expecting him to keep this up over the course of the season, good luck.

                              Yeah he has big time power and draws a lot of walks. Which are the two reasons Billy Beane brought him to Oakland. The knock on Cust throughout his career is that he is a little too patient which leads to a lot of strikeouts.

                              Think of Cust as a poor man's Adam Dunn.
