Just throwing this out there (cough, cough)... Arbitration offered to Frankie and he is likely to accept. Stories out there suggesting this means Feliz will get a shot at the rotation.

Frankie coming back certainly would make it more likely, but I'd still say it's a pretty safe bet that Feliz stays in the bullpen.

In fairness, didn't you also think it was a pretty safe bet that Frankie was gone?

No.

Frankie's far from a guarantee to be back. His injury might have lowered his value to the point that he accepts arbitration, but if not I think he's gone.

I could have worded the question better, but it is clear you were leaning toward the "He is leaving" camp. You put a support valve in there, but you were leaning.
