This won't exactly be a "stuff" bullpen, but it's a little more serviceable than what they had last year.

The real question I have is how capable can these two be at bouncing back and pitching consecutive days on a routine basis.

I'm also interested in seeing where Coffey and Shackleford fit into this now crowded situation. I want at least one of them with the big club, preferably Coffey. That guy's going to be a stud. But then again, maybe M2's wish that the younger guys get a chance to have a fair amount of success at the higher levels before they move on is coming to fruition.

We shall see what we shall see.
