Pavano's problems stemmed mainly from injury. Now there's no guarantee that won't happen with the Dump, but he's been pretty good at avoiding injuries so far (not to mention the fact that it's just as likely with anyone else).

Probably the entire Philadelphia roster is "available." The Phils lost to Toronto again today by a score of 6-5. They lost to the Jays 3-0 last night and are 9 1/2 games behind the Nationals pending the outcome of Washington's game with the MFYs.
