The two minor league pitchers they added will never see the majors. I thought Penny retired after his injury. Junior Lake is the first signing that I have liked. He can sub in as a fourth outfielder without being a detriment. It gives me the tiniest bit of hope that there is a move to be made concerning an outfielder for a pitcher at the major league level. There are now 5 MLB OF on the 23 man roster, and Lake on the 40. (If Saunders recovers. The way that Seattle fans loved the guy, I'd really like to see him play.)
