I would hope so, unless something dramatic happens.
More Quotes from Tim Purpura:
It's disappointing, ... We really felt like there might be some opportunities out there. You have to realize that once July 31 comes, the number of options shrinks dramatically in terms of players that get through waivers. This year, I don't know if it's a record, but it's got to be close to a record for players that were claimed on waivers. That shrinks your pool even smaller.Tim Purpura
It's not very different from what we faced in the past. It's the same situation we were in last year, where we were uncertain as to when we would get an answer. We're still in the same situation, so it's something that we've just recently learned, and it's something that we're going to have to meet and discuss and decide how we proceed to build our club.

It was difficult to build our club last year. We certainly learned some things from that. With the way our payroll has escalated through normal processes, it becomes an even greater difficulty this year to build.

His last two starts have been much better. His velocity (Thursday), he topped out at 89 (mph) and he averaged 88. His control is much better. ... He's throwing a little bit freer and easier and he's gotten a little bit more out of his arm. Certainly, if he's throwing 88, 89 from the left side he would be able to compete (in the majors).
