Kim Folk Part II
This is a pretty pathetic post, but then the Marlins have the markings of a pretty pathetic team. Byung-Hyun Kim has just been released by the Pirates (not exactly one of your stellar teams) and perhaps the Marlins should pick him up. The thing is, he can go out there and pitch some innings. He was 9-5 with Marlins last year, on the worst team in the NL East, with an ERA of 6 (well, 5.84.). He was also with two other teams ... But he can soak up some innings ... about five innings per game in his 19 starts with Marlins... You look at innings pitched by our prospective starters this year, and losing Dontrelle's 200-plus inning dependability, there isn't a lot there... Actually, maybe this is too pathetic a thought for spring ...

I made a vow the middle of last season never to go to another game pitched by Kim. They are long tedious games, and Kim's outings always seemed to end with a run in, runners on second and third, no outs, and the heart of the lineup coming up.
It will be even easier for me to stay away from the stadium if they sign him.
How does the arbitration system work? At what point during the season can they bring up Volsted without making this season count towards determining when he is eligible for arbitration? That would make more sense. . .
