I think you're breakdown of the pitching situation is spot on. It's not a major concern yet as it would be almost difficult for us not to make the playoffs this year (fingers crossed behind my back). I don't think we're going to catch the Yankees unless they have a complete meltdown, which is unlikely - they are a solid team (as are we). I do think we have to move on from pinning hopes on Pearson as any type of significant addition. There was a lot of that with Merryweather as well...

Trent Thornton has been quietly getting the job done -- throwing strikes in multi-inning relief. But at this point I wonder if we wouldn't be better off with him starting, whether you call him an 'opener' or not.
