If a pitcher is used only in break-glass/last-guy/blowout circumstances, then his spot on the roster should be taken by someone else, like an additional position player. In addition, given Girardi's apparent love affair with Unlucky™, I stand by my prediction that he will end up starting ten games if he stays on the roster.
