Redman breaks finger

Squaring around too late on a first-pitch sinker from Mulder, Mark Redman broke the tip of his left (throwing) index finger fouling off a bunt tonight. Since he's likely out for the year, odds are he'll pick up his $4,500,000 player option to return in 2006.

Redman finishes the year at 5-15. In 178.1 IP, he gave up 188 H, 18 HR, 56 BB to 101 Ks for a 4.90 ERA and 1.37 WHIP. Not good, but not as terrible as the record might indicate. Redman's ERAs by month Apr-Sept: 2.78, 3.43, 4.01, 6.94, 7.63, 11.57. Let's hope he can reset that come April '06. Wow, there should be quite a logjam competing for '06 rotation spots.
