He certainly has shown that he has no value as a short man. By stretching him out a bit, maybe another team can become convinced that he is capable of being a starter as he has wanted all along. Of course, that assumes that he makes it through multiple innings.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-12468344.post-5790825220981861402008-08-14T13:31:00.000-04:002008-08-14T13:31:00.000-04:00I think Metsblog stole your idea, or do great mind...I think Metsblog stole your idea, or do great minds think alike?<BR/><BR/>I too was gratified to see the vaunted Phillies bullpen implode for the 2nd night in a row.Demitrihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11495438944302609069noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-12468344.post-9734175902525463272008-08-14T11:05:00.000-04:002008-08-14T11:05:00.000-04:00Being here on the east coast you forget the absolu...Being here on the east coast you forget the absolute bunch of misfits Torre has out there, Park, Nomar, Kent, D-Lowe and now Manny.

Seems to be able to get lefties out too. He could work 2 of the later innings, maybe even setting up for Wags. It's worth a try. As you poitn out, using 4 pitchers to get 4 or 5 outs is taxing.<BR/><BR/>And maybe, for now, Heilman should be the long man.<BR/><BR/>Kunz probably is the guy to demote - Manuel seems averse to using him anyway. This guy needs to pitch . . . somewhere.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-12468344.post-59595603203627375352008-08-14T05:50:00.000-04:002008-08-14T05:50:00.000-04:00Classic post: Out-of-left-field yet in-depth analy...Classic post: Out-of-left-field yet in-depth analysis, capped off by one of your trademark laugh lines.
