Replacing him will continue to be Ben’s toughest job. But surely Some combination of Workman, Kelly, Light, Diaz, Aro, Hinojosa, Johnson, Spruill, Owens, Couch, Wright will replace the front end of this sad group; and surely one or two top arms will be signed. And just as surely these improvements will be added to Koji and Junichi. No more failed addition by misguided subtraction. And yes, Paps would be a good answer, with Koji, Junichi and Pat Light behind him.

Sure, a guy can go from reliever to starter (Sale), but it can also end up as a disaster (Daniel Bard).
