Where does he land? Veteran LHP never seem to die.

Texas Rangers maybe?

Tampa Bay? I'd think his skills would play pretty well there, and he'd be a fill-in until their SP situation sorts out.

what about Minny?

They have 6 SP now.

They have 6 SP now.

One's on an 80-day suspension and another is Mike Pelfrey, though.

I assumed you were right about this, but I was curious to check the numbers to see to what extent. Here are the numbers for Wandy over the last 10 years, who has started the ground-ball double plays with him on the mound:

Catcher 1
First Base 3
Second Base 46
Pitcher 16
Shortstop 65
Third Base 42

He was reported to have won a rotation spot last week.
