Well, that certainly sets Helenius back. Hopefully he can rebound next year ..

I read the snippet about Rogers being injured and Feaster certainly doesn't sound very happy with it .. at all. His future seems to be fading fast.

I wouldn't write Andy off

I wouldn't write Andy off yet. When he's played this year, he's been rock solid. I'm very impressed with his upside as a Cullimore type shut down guy if he can stay healthy.
