... to avoid further abuse of his pitching arm.  In his place, the Cleveland Indians will start one Bryan Bullington against the Chicago White Sox, roughly tied with the Minnesota Twins for the AL Central title. This former Pirates prospect, the spring training ace of the 2005 Pirates, wiped out of the majors entirely after that season, returning briefly in 2007 before being picked up by the Indians last July in a waiver move.

A 50% success rate for first round picks isn't bad (consider that the Pirates had the 1st overall pick and they chose Brian Bullington over such names as BJ Upton or Prince Fielder).
