I hereby predict that DiNardo (given a regular spot in the Oakland
pen) has a better 2007 ERA than at least half of the following group:
Timlin, Okajima, Tavarez, Pineiro, Donnelly, Romero. I understand
waiving him, but I suspect he's considerably better than his
performance last year would leave one to believe.


Yes, you liked DeNardo, and for some decent reasons. You blame WBC for
his woes last year. I don't know about that, but I think your
prediction on his ERA for 2007 is money in the bank. I was almost
certain he was gone, so the news is not a surprise, but I would have
liked to see him get a better opportunity with the RS. He was really
awful at times in 2006, but he does have a lot of ability.
