Dickey will soon be 42, and was 10-15 with a 4.69 ERA.

So why bring him back?

The rubber arm.  He can eat innings (169.2).  He can make spot starts.  He can be the old style mop-up man when the starters falter.

And the fans loved him.  Let’s do the reunion!

If any opportunities arise for next season, he said, he’ll decide about his future then.
