Dahl does not appear to be the answer long term, the larger the sample size the poorer the outcome. Although he is an outfielder which we need. If Clemens or Sosa can prove they can play the outfield then he is expendable.

Muzziotti was spectacular last year, but this year he is hitting around. 200 and not doing as well

Johnson down and Kingery up. Going to lose him anyway and you might as well get some use out of him
