(squintsp34 from Chicago)		Yep, quite right. And I suppose as long as you give Lieber only a long enough leash to prove to yourself that he isn't really going to be a part of a division-winning rotation is nice to get out of the way now, rather than, say, let him play the role of Brian Lawrence with the '07 Mets.
