Johnson turns 30 in June. He has started 1 game in the Majors (in 2006). I don't understand at-all why every year there is some discussion of Johnson returning to the rotation. Just not happening.

Copy/pasting

I think a better #3 would be: In three years, will Johnson be a relief pitcher or out of baseball?

I think we are to the point where a career ending injury is more probable then a move to the starting rotation.

1-128
2-38
3-Releiver
4-Tampa (Their luck with pitcher health runs out)
5-Wieters
6-Schoop (Bundy will be up early enough)
7-Hammel
8-106 OPS+
9-2.4
10-28, don't care

1: How many games will Nolan Reimold start next season? 90.

2: How many saves will Jim Johnson have in 2013? 40.

3: In three years, will Johnson be a relief pitcher or a starting pitcher? RP, see above.

4: Which team will finish last in the American League East in 2013? Boston.

5: Which player will hit more homers next season, J.J Hardy or Matt Wieters? Wieters.

6: Which minor league player are you most interested to follow next season and why? Schoop. I'll feel better about our positional core, if he is ready to take over 2nd after the All-Star break, or at-least going into '14.

7: Who will lead the 2013 Orioles in wins? Hammel.

8: What kind of batting stats will Manny Machado have in 2013? http://baltimorespor...anny-machado-2/

9: What will the Orioles' regular-season final attendance look like? 2.6M

10: Chris Davis hit 33 homers with 85 RBIs last year to lead the Orioles in both categories. How many homers and RBIs will Davis have in 2013? Great review for Davis from Tucker here: http://baltimorespor...013-projection/. I like Davis to have a .775 OPS in '13, and think he will have roughly the same HR and RBI numbers.
