The Mets and Diamondbacks exchanged pitchers yesterday. The Mets got rid of Jorge Julio, who has strung together some good appearances after being a disaster to start the season, and acquired Orlando Hernandez, who numbers this season indicate the D'backs felt he was a disaster, too.
I do not like either player although El Duque may be a play if your team is desparate for Wins and the pool includes no starting pitcher alternatives outside of Rockies.
I believe Julio is going to pitch much more frequently in Arizona until he either proves competent, and that is not a high bar to meet in that 'pen, or completely blows-up.
Odds favor the former option and not the latter.
