Like I said, I think Theo will work he magic with another team in the mix like last summer's Nomar deal (Cubs-Twins-Sox).

I think you're right about Theo. He's definately got something planned, I just wish I knew what it was. I'd hate to get rid of Arroyo. I like the kid and think he can be a productive pitcher in the long run. Maybe we could get Lowe back but that doesn't really help the closer issue. (wishful thinking anyone?) I just think Theo needs to go ahead and strike first before the flopping yanks pull something out of their ass like they usually do.
