Speaking of bullpen dominance, it will be interesting to see who the Braves decide to keep in the bullpen. Here is the way I see it:

Locks: Wickman, Soriano, Gonzalez, McBride, Paronto, and Villareal

It looks to me like the last spot will be given to Tyler Yates. I totally disagree with this move. Yates can't be counted on unless we're up by 5. I'd give the spot to Boyer. He's having a strong spring and he was one of our better relievers before he got hurt.

I'd also take a look at Stockman. He'll start in AAA but his numbers last year were too good to overlook. If he does that again, we'll almost have to bring him up.

The last spot could depend on who wins the last spot in the starting rotation, if Cormier isn't in the starting rotation I could very well see him in this spot.

Davies will undoubtedly pitch in AAA if he doesn't win the 5th spot. Cormier, on the other hand, might take that last spot but I think it's more likely that he'll head to Richmond to get some more work starting.

yeah i think cormier will end up in richmond and davies will win the 5th spot. but who knows someone might get hurt early on (hampton) and cormier could come back up and take the 5th spot with everyone else shifting up a spot.
