Niese put in the rotation

According to Newsday, Ollie's on the DL, after an MRI revealed a more significant injury than previously thought.

Niese getting the start so that the 40-year old Japanese virgin rookie can stay in the pen and give us a second left-handed arm there.

Niese has been bad so far this year (ERA>6) at Buffalo, but is coming off one good start.

Can anyone say, TRADE VALUE? Showcasing Niese, excusing Perez.

Niese, Perez, and Reyes for Perralta and Lee?

I'm still waiting.
