Compete for the Division? No, but I doubt they will be in last place.
Also, when talking about Russ Ortiz you have to acknowledge that he isn't intended to be our 'ace' starter. He's our '#2' pitcher but it's obvious to everyone outside of the organization that he will be the third best pitcher on the team (Vazquez and Webb should both easily post sub-3.75 ERAs with good K rates).
