Correia and Livan have shown some ability to put up a good start from time to time. I’m not even sure right now how Matt Palmer gets outs. He’s a flyball pitcher that doesn’t strike anybody out, walks too many guys and was generally bad/mediocre in the minor leagues.

You’re gonna feel pretty silly after his no-hitter today featuring 14 strikeouts. But I admire your fortitude. You got moxy, kid.

Sanchez could be bounced from the rotation sez Baggs
http://blogs.mercurynews.com/extrabaggs/2009/06/17/sanchez-2-7-could-be-bounced-from-rotation/
What does "making an adjustment" mean?
"Change the order, put Jonathan in the bullpen, possibly. It includes everything."
But not sending him to the minors. Sanchez is out of options, and he’d almost assuredly be claimed off waivers by another team if the Giants attempted to send him down.

But think about it – he can come out of the pen firing scorchers and not having to worry about a second time through the lineup. He won’t have to concentrate for too long. It might work for him. As everyone has pointed out repeatedly on this site, 5th starters aren’t all that special or hard to come by.

I see what you are saying, an awesome reliever is better than a 5th starter. I just think that his upside will lead him to be a #2 starter (OR THIRD STARTER AT BEST) and that is way better than a competent reliever in the trade market.
