Looks like Dwyer and Arguelles are complete shit and Giavotella has regressed. Will Smith is the king of getting out of jams.

Side notes:
Will Smith was clearly not right to start the season. Has only walked one batter since the first start (in which he walked 6 in 3 IP) and has allowed 23 runners over his last 19 innings. He's a command guy who probably is nothing more than a No. 5 starter, at best, but having some of those guys around is valuable.
Arguelles has never recovered the mid-90s velocity he flashed before signing. If he doesn't, he's not making the majors.
Dwyer cannot consistently throw strikes. I think he still can be an effective bullpen arm if nothing else.
