Now it just won't be Olson going to the Pads. But it could still be Marshall.<!--QuoteEnd--><!--QuoteEEnd-->

And then our only LH reliever is Cotts?

Yup. It's the flaw in the theory (which I've conceded). Though if Marshall were the fifth starter right now, we've only got one lefty in the pen anyway.
