Wouldn't they rather have Bedard instead?

Riley seems to keep getting chances, apparently baseball minds seem to think that he might still have something in the tank. He'll be one to watch this spring.

Well he's still left handed ..........

He was with them last year. No reason not to give him one last shot, he's still arguably rebounding from his second TJ surgery.

I think he's had three Tommy John surgeries now. If he has a fourth, he will actually become Tommy John.

Don't they take muscle/ligament out of your leg and transplant it into your elbow? It's a wonder he can still walk.
