[11] Raf,

Mattpat isn’t happy unless he’s worrying about such things. It’s his way. I’m just glad for his sake (and health) that Pavano and Betemit are both gone and safely signed with other teams!

I wouldn’t worry about Jason Johnson. He’s minor league filler, the last guy on the roster if he’s even that.

Diane, Nothing good can come from this Jason Johnson signing. I'm getting one of my feelings. And I'm usually right on those.

[4] From ESPN.com:

“To make room for Pavano, the Indians designated infielder Michael Aubrey for assignment.”

Now that’s just harsh.

Pettitte is an expensive dish of comfort food.

Do they *need* him? No. Would they be better with him? I’m not convinced.

[4] Who?

Oh, I doubt we need him, but as other commenters have said, I like having him around. My heart was a wee bit broken when he was off in Houston.

If you’re not sure who you want pitching for you, your options probably aren’t that great.

Then again, seeing as Pavano signed a contract with the Indians, even that may not be accurate.

I think it’s always better to just have an established rotation, no competing for a spot. If you’re not sure who you want pitching for you, your options probably aren’t that great.
