Bonser can hang out on the 60 day DL with Neshek, keeping him on the roster while giving Humber a spot in the bullpen as a long reliever/spot starter. That way, both pitchers, who are out of options, stay on the team, and the bullpen can sort itself out over the first couple months. Opening Day bullpen: Nathan, Crain, Breslow, Guerrier, Humber, Ayala + Jones/Mijares/Dickey if we go with 12. This probably works out for the best.

My apologies for that, and for being overly defensive. My bad! Medical Staff,

Its only their jobs, which they could lose by not being sufficiently thorough." If you couldn't figure out that the above statement was sarcascm, then you are what you accuse me of - ignorant. Read it again. If you don't realize that NOBODY could say THAT seriously, then it IS my fault.... for over-rating my audience! Medical Staff,

You might want to change your screen name. As for Fred, birdofprey, Walter Johnson, Chief and Twin-Bill you are right on the money. Blaming the trainers and doctors for ANY injury to an athlete is totally ridiculous. So all those ignorant people are saying that there will be no injuries if they fire the doctors and trainers? Injuries happen on the field, not in the training room or doctor's office. (Or undergoing an MRI.) Why blame anybody? There are bound to be injuries. That's why there are trainers, doctors, the disabled list. Ben W. sounds like he is a wanna be medical personel...I agree, don't quit your day jobs.
