Check Wiretap, I would give him a shot.

Depends how he looks. Could be much like Colon, give him a minor league contract, and he can maybe give you some starts later in the year.

Sounds like a good idea to me.

We are already overloaded but I still love Garica's potential because of his age.

I don't see this overload you speak of. Wakefield is old, Buchholz and Lester have never had high workloads. That's 60% of the rotation right there. Luckily they have Tavarez and Hansack who can provide reasonable run prevention, but that's still not an overload. That's 7 pitchers and outside of Beckett and Daisuke they all have some big question marks.

Garcia would be a nice addition, but he's probably not going to be healthy until the All-Star Break. Good depth if you can get him.

Agree 100%
