    Interesting tidbit I saw (I think on ESPN) was that the Astros and Orioles have discussed a Robertson or Duckworth for Buddy Groom (LH reliever) trade, but that it did not work out. If they got the 2002 Buddy Groom, that would help the team.

    It would not suprise me to see them start with 11 pitchers and hang on to Ryan Thompson to start the season.

    It is interesting. We have 2-3 guys who are proven starters (Robertson, Hernandez and Duckworth) who could easily step in if one of the Fab Five are injured. Chicago can't say the same thing.

    Lamb has a real upper-cut type swing.
