re: Leon Landry to join Baseball Staff

'm a little worried about the sheer amount of innings that will need to be replaced, but we brought in so many arms that it may not be an issue.

As I've said before, we're going to have to get used to seeing a lot more 5 inning starts and multiple relievers in every weekend game.

And Johnny Wholestaff almost every mid week game to flesh out which guys will be ready to throw in relief on the weekends.

Oh no doubt, there be some expecting Hess and Gilbert to dominate every game but that won't be the case, as long as they can find two serviceable closers/setup guys they can depend on late in the game they'll be able to bridge the gap.

I like that they brought in a large group of pitchers this signing class. I'm hoping they give 3-4 guys a chance to win the Sunday job and the strongest wins it early in spring.

I couldn't be more excited. Leon is one of my all time favorite baseball players.
I think he will be and incredible addition to the staff.
