Heard that. I'd love to pry Yusmeiro Petit away from the Mets. A 2007 (or 2008) starting rotation of Beckett/Papelbon/Lester/E. Martinez/Petit would be deadly. Deadly.
I remember great rotations of past years, like Morton-Gardiner-Quantrill.
The future is ..... well, it's out there in the future somewhere, and tends to stay there, being the future and all, which is why you don't want to count on it being there and why if you've got $13M/yr to pay an established 25-year-old starter (and his 3B sidekick) you do it.
