Close the book on Mike Pelfrey, who endured a 2 1/2-hour bus ride for roughly 20 minutes of work. Pelfrey pitched two scoreless innings, allowing an infield single to Magglio Ordonez and striking out one.
We'll see what Pelfrey has to say for himself when we head to the clubhouse in a few minutes. He won the No. 5 job last year in spring training, but he's blocked by Orlando Hernandez for the time being.

I can see Pelfrey getting the 5 spot again...
Duque sounds like he's hurting...
Remember when Pelfrey was considered a future ace...............
He still is, if he was kept in the minors instead of being rushed up. I think he would be a top prospect.
Tom, agree. El Duque may be better suited for the bullpen...
