The Faces of Super Two, Part 16

Pat Valaika, IF, Colorado.  Valaika was sent back to the minors on Saturday.  It may not look like it, but this move could alter the Super Two picture.

Valaika, who has one year and 130 days of career service time, has no chance to qualify for Super Two status after this season.  However, before his demotion, there was a chance he could end the season with two years of service time.  This total would have added a player to the pool used to determine the number of Super Twos.

When it comes time to crunch the Super Two numbers, removing a player like Valaika from the pool could be the difference between 28 and 29 Super Twos.
