Don't know how I missed it either. I had a rough December (sick) and
wasn't on the newgroups too much. Then I was on the road for business
a lot in late January and early February, so I suppose it slipped
through somewhere along the way.
All the pundits are saying we have a great bullpen and I have to
agree. If Maroth can come back and be that fifth starter, that would
be great. Then we still have closers Jones, Rodney and Zumaya.
Ledezma it looks like is being groomed to take over Walker's spot.
Also Andrew Miller is waiting in the wings. He'll probably not make
the 25 man roster but he'll be back up in September if not.
