Bet it will be the guys with options, which wouldn't include Holland. The other 3 surely do.<br />That only leaves the Tenuous Two, Blach and Gearrin, and one of them is on Life Support.<br />With the Scintillating Six, that makes 15. Two, probably 3, are banished (or worse) to Sacramento. Ray Black's gonna have to wait.<br />Belt's back Friday to face Lefty Wood (? -- might as well wait until Saturday), then Stripling, and Buenuelos (?). WOW, the Dogs are really beaten up on their pitching staff.

So that's good to know. But, still, I'd fire-sale Gearrin & Jackson and bring up Black & Duggar.

Moronta is already up to .5 fWAR, with an ERA of 1.52; and Bochy is entrusting him with more highly leveraged situations.campanarinoreply@blogger.com
