One More Rag Armed Reliever

The news came across today that the Dodgers have signed former San Francisco Giants and Amish Farmer look a like Brian Wilson to a one year contract. Maybe the Dodgers did not have enough rag armed relief pitchers with astronomic ERA's and needed one more to fill out the bullpen. Granted Brandon League, Carlos Marmol, and Brian Wilson were all top relievers within the past couple of years. It does not take much to lose it as a relief pitcher. Very few relievers can maintain stay on the top of their game as long as Mariano Rivera or in the past a Rollie Fingers, Lee Smith, or Bruce Sutter. I hope the Dodgers have pulled one off the scrap heap in Brian Wilson but I only see him pitching in middle relief at the most.
