Utility Infielder Robert Andino isn't willing to predict the future, but it isn't hard to do it for him. He was displaced by the trade that will put veteran Julio Lugo on the 25-man Opening Day roster and is just waiting to see where he lands.
"I can't do nothing about it,'' he told Jeff Zrebiec earlier today. "I ain't going to let them mess up my thing. I go about my thing like I do every day. I go about my business. I ain't worried about it at this point. Whatever is going to happen, it's going to happen."
The club is believed to be trying to find another team that needs him. Failing that, he likely will be designated for assignment in the next 24 hours and either released or reassigned to the minor leagues. The decision could come as soon as late this afternoon. So far, he hasn't heard an official word.
"They don't tell me nothing,'' he said. "You never know because nothing has happened yet. I'm just waiting to see. You don't know what's going to happen in this game. I'm just going about my business. Life is too short to be all mad and stuff."
