Roster Shuffle -- Rhodes & Dickey in, Morse & EOF out

Rhodes and Dickey have been called up to replace Morse and O'Flaherty. This makes a lot of sense, especially with Bedard's status up in the air. Gives the Mariners 12 pitchers. Morse is on the 15 day DL with a dislocated shoulder, injured while trapping Guerrero's double. Norton takes over Morse's role anyway, and McLaren has yet to prove that he is willing (or knows how) to use a 5 player bench.

Rhodes gives a second lefty to replace Potatoes, whose head must just be spinning right now. EOF was terrible and needs to get his location and command issues worked out. W.Tenn. sounds like the right place for that.

Dickey gives needed versatility to the pen. I would prefer him starting than Baek right now, if Bedard's hip continues to act up.
