The same thing is happening on the other side of Pennsylvania. Vicente Padilla is scheduled to come off the DL later this week, and Gavin Floyd pitched too well in St. Louis over the weekend to lose his rotation spot.

Isn't it kind of early to make a determination that the fifth starter deserves to maintain his spot? You'd hate to deprive a returning pitcher of his proper place in the rotation when the spot starter could have had a fluke turn.
