• It's tough with the WBC going on to evaluate talent, but it's given them a chance to see some of the lower level guys.
• Correia has thrown the ball very well.  Josh Geer's velocity is not where it was last year.   Correia and Geer are the front runners for the 4 and 5 spot.
• There are 4 to 5 spots open in the bullpen.
• There might be 2 or 3 guys who end up in the bullpen that aren't even in Padres camp.  Towers is scouring the waiver wire.
• The bonding between Hundley and the pitching staff is important, that's why the WBC is really hurting.
