It's too bad that Mussina has found retirement to be so enjoyable.

Through injury, attrition and promotion, it seems the Scranton Yanks have been just blowing through pitchers lately. Hell, if (You know) Sergio keeps doing what he's doing at the big league level - they may need to bring more reinforcements from AAA to the Bronx - though presumably not Ortiz.

I hope and pray that we don't see him this year but I probably know better. I'm not even kidding when I say that I'd have prefered if they had asked Al Leiter or David Cone if they wanted one more shot.
