You forgot to list Murton and Barrett as possible bench options from the right side. Because they're both everyday starters at this point. They'll probably get more days off than Soriano or Lee, but it doesn't make up for the gaping lack of RH hitters on the bench, especially in comparison to the left side. I do think we need one legitimate power threat from the right side for the bench. It's our glaring deficiency. -
It's still early, but it appears that Perry has changed this team's approach. Lee doubles off the wall over Hall, but Theriot slips and holds at third. Runners on third and second, no one out.

Theriot leads off with a walk. Man, I like the riot.
-
That's all that's guaranteed. Link. this is why the pats are always there. what a great deal for them. Based on their offseason, the Patriots right now are my early pick to win the SuperBowl in 2008.

Does Colvin have a shot at making the team if we go with 11 pitchers? Or who would be the 25th man behind Floyd, Ward, Theriot, Pagan, and Blanco? No, he needs to go and work on his game instead of sitting around on the bench. The Cubs have bigger plans for him... Colvin will probably be sent out early to join his minor-league team (probably Peoria). He's looked good here. As is the case with many No. 1 picks, he got the ST invite as part of his deal. Baseball people I've talked to really like him. I'm about 1.5 hours late here, but I was wondering if you had seen Colvin? He was really thin last season and supposedly bulked up during the offseason and yet he looked thin in the pics and video footage I've seen so far. Any thoughts? He's added some weight, but he doesn't look "bulky" at all. Thanks, he definitely needs to add more muscle, imo. Pat might be able to get him some mashed potatoes.
