Nooooooooooooooooooooo!
I am officially out of the running for the 5th spot in the rotation. I was released on Saturday.

Coming in to camp, I knew it was going to be a really tough year to make the AAA team. The Dodgers have several spots to fill at the major league level, and they have signed an army of free agents to contend for those jobs. With so many question marks in the bullpen, it is only natural that they would want to have several veterans in Albuquerque to serve as insurance policies.

Considering all of the factors, I can't say that I am all that surprised by the decision. Unfortunately it doesn't make it any easier. The most difficult part of the situation is the fact that my arm feels great. I only threw twice this spring, but I pitched well in both outings. For the first time since 2007, I felt like I was in control of the game.
It's a slow news day, but this is not the news I wanted to see.

Best of luck to him.
