Carlos Pena

Any thoughts on picking up Carlos Pena once the Yanks do not bring him up on May 2nd? According to rotowire.com he has an out clause in his contract and they speculate he may use it to fill in for D-Lee:

"Pena has a clause in the minor league contract he signed with the Yankees that allows him to become a free agent by May 2nd if the Yankees haven't added him to their active roster, the Booth Newspapers report.

This should mean Pena will be in the majors by May 2nd as he would likely exercise his option for free agency to sign with the Cubs, who lost Derrek Lee for two months due to injury, if the Yankees don't promote him."
