Inking Howry to a minor league deal at the prorated MLB minimum is practically a no risk venture. If he returns to his 2009 form, we get an absolute steal (ala Edmonds & Reed Johnson). If he stinks up the joint, we plug him into mop up duty in Iowa until the expanded rosters. What's the problem?!? It's infinitely better than giving up a 2nd tier prospect for Howry-like veteran with slightly better numbers.
