Zavala surprises me the most. Also don't understand releasing Otero.

That's pretty much it for Opening Day (unless Sean Burnett parachutes in)

They waited for Gil a long, long time. De La Rosa officially a disastrous draft pick. Rohm was a guy they paid well over slot for also. Walters was a classy, professional addition out of the indy ranks. Shame he didn't get more of a chance, but he's a lot closer to 30 than 20.

Shows how much the draft is really a crap shoot. De La Rosa was taken about where he was expected to be taken, but he just couldn't hit.

Last year I posted a small report on De La Rosa. It wasn't good. I'm not surprised.

Roster square, all current jersey numbers posted. EOF gets #34 back, Stubbs grabs #2 before Bourn's body even gets cold.

Only fitting. Stubbs kind of fits my definition of #2.
