    D-Train Is Back

    Dontrelle Willis returns to the majors today. What happened to this kid? Was supposed to be automatic hall of fame.

    how can you add Strausburg to that list? The guy has pitched 1 year, has plenty of time to recover. Not everyone coming back from Tommy John is horrible.

    fair enough wiggums

    but when guys like eric gagne/david wells/kerry wood were coming off of tommy john surgery they had the juice to get them up to speed...

    missing a whole season after only throwing 68 innings is not a promising sign
