"More interesting to me is the Round 2 when they ask what the key for the 2nd half is and Gordo says it could be adding a starter and moving Lynn to the bullpen. I want to hit every sportswriter that suggests this on the knuckles with a ruler."

Strauss suggested the same thing at least twice this week - once in his chat and once in his midterm report. At least there's some logic to it. It depends upon who the starter is, I suppose. If they go out and get Greinke or Hamels, that's one thing. If they add, say, Bruce Chen, I don't see the point.

Berkman coming back Saturday. Mike Matheny is the luckiest manager in MLB when trying to figure out his lineup. Seriously, what does he do? Does he play Beltran in center to just go balls-out in Berkman's first game back?
