Weeks welcomes challenge

Rickie Weeks reacted well to his club's trade for a second baseman. Milwaukee acquired Ray Durham for two minor leaguers on Sunday. Monday night Weeks got the start at second, going 2-5 with a home run (9) and three RBI. The Brewers beat the Cardinals, 6-3.

Fantasy Impact: Weeks is only hitting .219, but speculation has it that Milwaukee brought Durham in for depth rather than to replace their light-hitting second baseman. Keep Weeks active until Durham starts getting more at bats.
