I know that's what got me thinking.

What happens if we seriously have 6 quality starters. It’s nice having that depth and with the prospects impressing we could have a serious log-jam so SP’s which is a nice problem to have. But it will be interesting to see how the FO handles it.

I think most of the kids have a better shot at the pen anyway.

I’d be overjoyed if we had a quality 6th starter wasting time in the springs.

Really doubt it

Francis would have to suffer a big setback, or someone else get injured.
I think its best for the team if he’s the top guy in the springs and ready for call-up.

Granted, it was a two-lane highway and the cop was going the speed limit. There were at least a couple other cars behind the cop, obviously not passing. She got annoyed and passed all of them, and he pulled her over. Though she somehow managed to not get a ticket out of it.
