Not surprising

1. El Duque's new delivery is not a winner.

2. Delgado is being fed a steady diet of inside fastballs and choking hard. 5 for 5 Ks.

On another note, the same post article indicated a rumored trade of pagan for coco crisp. All I can say is this would be a bad trade. Coco crisp is perhaps the best defensive CF in AL, but his offense is atrocious. He can't hit for anything. We need to replace alou's bat more than his fielding. I'll gladly take an adequate fielder with a good bat to spell his absence. So far pagan seems more than adequate, although his (limited) career #s are not great.

John Maine is on fire.

El Duque's new delivery continues to stink, as he has no velocity and, more importantly, no location.

Looks like he's headed straight to bullpen.

I'm getting sick and tired of all these injuries. This team is old, old, old. Between Alou, Duque, Delgado, Valentin, Castillo, Sanchez, Schneider, and Castro it will be a miracle if we have a good roster by opening day.
