How would you like to be in the front office now? Have to get quick
fixes due to a lack of bodies. Four weeks to the trading deadline and
what are you willing to do? Don't want to give up the farm for a temp
replacement. Don't want to get a big time player that won't have a role
when someone else gets healthy.

The irony? Lowell can play three positions, although a little crippled.
Those three are three out of the four where no one has been hurt. So
they did DL him, but that could have been more of a phantom thing
because they needed roster maneuvering room with all that is happening.

Well they could certainly use catching help going forward no matter how
everything plays out. Who is under contract after this year?

I don't think this was any phantom. Mike is running out of time for his
career. He is well aware. I'd be completely shocked if he would sabotage
that by such subterfuge. He needs to show he can still play or he might not
even get a job next year.

Patterson. They're all set.
