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.
