I would be a little concerned about not having a quality left-hander in the rotation, though, for potential match-up purposes in the post-season.

Not a big deal. Although Pettitte is a lefty, his pitching style (heavy on the cut fastball) actually makes him far more effective against righties than lefties -- which means he's a righty for all intents and purposes.

That may well be true, but heck, Schiraldi blew game 7, too. I never understood why HE wasn't the goat instead of Buckner.
