This just in:
 
    Felix  Hernandez  - P, SEA Apr 14 11:3 AM  Hernandez  was removed after 
allowing five runs in 4 2/3 innings against the Indians  on Thursday night. 
RotoWire.com  Recommends: Hernandez walked four and gave up seven hits,  
including two homers. Though he struck out four, he had little command for  the second 
consecutive start, throwing 102 pitches. Hernandez was shut  down at the end 
of spring training with shin splints - maybe that's still  a factor. 
 
Two outings in a row with poor control?  A strictly enforced 105 pitch  count 
and a 200 innings (including spring games) limit on the season?  Me  thinks 
the Emperor (King) isn't wearing any clothes.  At least not for the  2006 USML 
season.  Can the Red Hots really afford to turn away offers  for this guy?  
 
That is all.
