ITEM:
  Frank Francisco (pectoral) felt discomfort during a bullpen session Saturday.
Though he's had an MRI that came back clean, Francisco is now a
question mark for Opening Day. "We're hopeful Opening Day is still
possible, but still uncertain," Blue Jays manager John Farrell said.
If Francisco is unavailable by April 1, Jon Rauch will be used as the
team's closer. Even if Francisco recovers in time for the opener,
you'd probably be wise to have Rauch around just in case.


LOSER: With Aardsma out till who knows when and Francisco sustaining
yet another injury, the AYM face serious saves crisis. With an already
questionable pitching staff, AYM's fortunes trend DOWN.

WINNER: The already overstuffed Red Hots add yet another weapon to
their arsenal: Jon Rauch.  They are the prohibitive favorites to win
this year and Bombers will have difficult time finding a dump partner
willing to overpay propsects for Mark Reynolds.  MRH's fortunes trend
SKY HIGH.
