There's not even another lefty reliever on the 40-man. There are 5 open spots on the 40-man, but who do you call up? J.R. Mathes is 1 of 2 lefty pitchers in Iowa and he has a 9.64 ERA so far. Jason Waddell is the only other lefty pitcher in Iowa. He's pitched well, but I've never heard of him.<!--QuoteEnd--><!--QuoteEEnd-->
We've practically gone without a lefty. Do we really need one? Other than the Reds with Votto and Bruce, we don't face a left handed team for a while.
