I won't lose any sleep over losing Vizcaino, but why not Cotts? His lefthandedness has never actually been a strength. Plus it just pisses me off that we keep eating contracts.<!--QuoteEnd--><!--QuoteEEnd-->

The only thing I can think of is they think they can trade vizcaino but not cotts

I'd say it's a combination of that, and the simple left-handed thing. Doesn't matter that he sucks, and isn't really great against lefties. Lou would rather die than not have a lefty in the pen.

When I first heard this I thought, "awesome. Spellcheck is starting, Marshall to be the lefty in the pen and Cotts is gone."

Am I crazy? Shouldn't it be that easy?

Except for the fact that Marshall is, at least now, a better starter then Shark. I don't want Shark in the rotation, he hasn't proven he can do it. He had a couple good AAA starts after a terrible spring, that doesn't scream replace Marshall to me.
