Different topic, but I think an out of contention team should try something radical like this. Go to a four-man rotation with a long reliever who can get occassional spot starts as your #5 if and only if you need a sub.

I'll agree to this for baseball if all the cranky old men will at least agree to stop complaining they don't call carrying in the NBA

I don't live near as close as I used to though.

I've excited and pumped up to see the Orioles extend their streak to 14 consecutive losing seasons. Yeah, baby. Andy MacPhail is a genius.

Yep. And I have a number of ideas for non-contending teams that some of my friends and I throw out there while having a few pints and talking baseball. Heck, if it puts butts in the seats, it should be done anyway. Granted, some of the ideas are so radical that they would require revamping the team's farm system, but still...

yeah, different thread to bring up during the season once we see how players and teams are doing.

We need a new Bill Veeck. Someone who will just do crazy crap because it might work, but it'll keep fans entertained. This stuff is supposed to be fun.
