They also added Willie Harris, who normally would make the 25 man roster just because he can run and sub at 2nd but I bet he either gets sent to Triple A or they trade him. Graffanino is likely to be delt as well, but if he can hit the way he did last year, maybe they trade Cora instead and keep Graffanino as a bat off the bench? Neither player is going to get much in the trade market other than a low-level prospect or a journeyman reliever. I think they'll likely carry 11 pitchers though, especially just after spring training with all the off days that usually fall in April. Of course, everything can change if someone gets hurt or if a guy like Keith Foulke isn't ready for the start of the season.
