Teams need pitching, including the Yanks. Some need starters, some relievers. How come no one wants to take a chance on Pedro?  His WBC was decent.  I am not a fan of his antics. But for an 8th inning set up man for Mo, why not see what he has left? He is 37. His last 3 years show

2006: 9-8, 4.48, ERA + 97. 23 starts.  132.2 IP
2007:  3-1, 2.57;  28 IP. ERA+ 166.
2008: 5-6, 5.61; 109 IP. ERA +  75

Ok. He is 37. Not what he was. But could he at least be a decent set up guy for a year or two?

AAA

SWB wins 9-1. HR, 2 RBI for Todd Linden. 2 HR, 5 rbi for Shelley. John Rodriguez with a solo HR. A-Jax had 2 hits, a RBI and is at .353. He got two SB & is 11 for 11 in that dept.
