Or, should I point out that Lester's ERA was 7.66 in August last year...coincidentally, his second time around the league. Either way you slice it, Lester has proven that he can't make adjustments.<BR/><BR/>Who said anything about Giambi?? Who cares about him - he's a role player, as evidenced by the fact that he's going to platoon with Andy Phillips, Damon, Shelley Duncan, and Betemit. 5 players for 2 spots (1B and DH).
