Joly being a #4 or #5 guy - is that on a first place or last place team? I see nothing in him. I can't imagine how he ever managed to pitch a no-hitter.

He's losing it due to old age, so I am not sure whether we want to continue along that road. He would certainly still be an improvement over Fairchild in long relief, but at the moment we have a problem with filling the rotation anyway...

This is a question that will be answered in September, I guess.

One of the hidden advantages of Scott Wade was of course always the bug that his two pitches led him to ask for reliever's money his whole career, but it is only really an advantage if you get a rock-solid middle of the order starter for that reliever's money.

On a first place team, that is.
