Hendry interview on ESPN 1000

I thought this would be diary worthy because Hendry provided a few nuggets, a rundown:

-Team is hoping to add a couple more guys, they asked about Roberts and he declined to talk about him but it seemed clear that he was going after him.  Also looking to add a RH bat that can play all three OF spots.

-Gallagher "is going to be a lot better than people think" is what Hendry said, saying that he gets more calls from teams looking to trade for Gallagher than any other player on the roster.

-Still looking to put Dero in a supersub role, though they'd be perfectly happy with him at second if the season started today.

-Murton is most definitely going to be traded.  He said the team views him as a major league caliber left fielder and used the Corey Patterson line, "we've talked to Matt and we are going to do what's best for Matt and what's best for the club."

-The rotation is the three we know about for sure Z, Lilly, Hill and then five guys going for the last two spots, all the regular names, Hart, Gallagher, Marshall, Dempster, Marquis.  Also likes Ascanio a lot and he could make the pen.  Says Hart is perfect for the long man role if he doesn't make the rotation.
