I mean are we going to let Gathright go over him? Probably not. We aren't going to keep five OF's on the roster.<!--QuoteEnd--><!--QuoteEEnd-->
We had at least 5 OFers on the roster the entire season last year. Johnson, Fukudome, Soriano, Edmonds, Ward (sorta), Pie were all on the roster at the same time. They could find room for Pie, if need be.

We already have Bradley, Soriano, Johnson, Fukudome and Gathright. Pie would be 6. Plus, Hoff is gonna take Ward's spot, unless we sign Aurilia or someone similar. Pie's gone.

I don't think it's a given that Hoffpauir is on the roster. If the only deal that's out there is a deal to dump Pie for basically nothing in return, I don't think it happens. We had the same situation with Cedeno last year and we didn't dump him for nothing, I don't see Pie (who's more valuable than Cedeno) being dumped for no return.
That being said, I think something probably materializes before the end of ST and Pie gets dealt.
