So long as the pen doesn't need him, it won't hurt to give it a shot, though it may be better to wait until next year.

I saw a little headline about Henson in the intro to Gammons column but it's insider only so I wasn't able to read it.

And I'm not buying in to Johnny and Pedro being much different. They wanted the highest dollar they could get and they got it. That's great for them, they earned it. But I don't really think they played their period as FA's much differently. All I hear from Johnny's mouth is how the RS disrespected him, same sound different instrument.
