March 27, 200719 yr Can't believe it wasn't mentioned yesterday, but Yusmeiro Petit was traded from the Marlins for Jorge Julio of the DBacks.
March 27, 200719 yr QUOTE(Milkman delivers @ Mar 27, 2007 -> 12:02 PM) Wait, isn't Petit supposed to be really good? He's a guy with a deceptive delivery and gaudy minor league stats in the lower levels. Scouts never really liked him and called him a back of the rotation guy, but the stats said different... until he started pitching at the higher levels of baseball. The scouts were right. He's a back end of the rotation, back of the bullpen guy, and could even end up as a AAAA player.

The last I heard of him was that he was good, which threw me off seeing him traded for Jorge Julio.
