That sounds like a personal problem.

I can see Jim Johnson going into the starting rotation. The signing of Chong and the interest in Street. Koji,perhaps coming back in the next few weeks ,all point to the O's moving Johnson.

Or making a concerted effort to build a solid bullpen behind Johnson as the closer.

The Orioles need to be most concerned with building a solid rotation.

If you have a solid rotation, the bullpen will improve based on less usage alone IMO.

Mmmmm, kimchi

The Yard could do worse then a Korean BBQ place.

You know they BBQ dogs don't you.....

Whatever it is they are doing, it works...at least with some of their food.

Awesome Korean restaurant in Caesars up in AC if anyone ever goes there.

Cats as well, you know, in Korea. They make mighty tasty BBQ beef here in the States.

[LookinUp]

I'm much more sophisticated, with my chickens and pigs rotating on sticks. :

And all sorts of insects as well.

I agree, though as many pointed out the improvement of the bullpen may allow Johnson to help improve the rotation internally (which is far cheaper than acquiring a comparable pitcher via Free Agency or trade). Ultimately, Johnson shouldn't be the only add to the rotation, but the way I see it, we need to add 2 starters. If one is Johnson, the minimizes the resources we need to use to help the rotation.

I feel like your contributions to this conversations must be ironic (recalling when the topic of discussion was helmet-chasing).

No I have been to Korea on tour and they do eat insects, in their markets, and have monkey on a stick, as well as eating dogs and cats. I make no social value judgement on their cuisine, it's quite good. I usually ate in the local restaurants becuse the food was so good and so much cheaper than the tourist traps. But I declined the dogs and cats and bugs. De gustibus.
