I was going to go on a big rant about how huge Rolando Arrojo has been to this team since the trade with the Rockies. But i'm going to let the following numbers do all the talking.

Arrojo's two worst starts were against Oakland, I guess the A's are just "the team" that gets to him.

Now look at his totals without the two games against the A's.

As you can see Arrojo has been nothing short of phenominal since the trade. Now I know we were forced into taking Mr. Useless, Mike Lansing, and his obsurde contract to get Rolando. But would we only be two back of the Indians for the Wild Card without him? |
