After Lester's last start, I think he (lester) is ahead of Bucholz......Wakefield is not going to battle anyone for a spot, hes earned it and there is no reason to panic with him after a few bad starts, as we've grown accustomed to the results he gives us. Unless he gets hurt, which seems likely at some point this year.

I really have to think that Colon is going to be a major part of the rotation, they are really pushing the guy hard, and almost all reports have been outstanding. Hitting mid to high 90s already in his road to recovery? Impressive to say the least. At the very worst, why cant we have Clay pick up some solid innings in AAA and then use him in a role like the Yankees did with Joba last year (IM NOT COMPARING THEM!!!!!) At first they let Joba get his feet wet, and we all know what happened from there. Just a thought, especially with the concerns growing over Timlins timetable, and what he will actually be able to provide.
