G-Snarls Community Moderator Posted May 19, 2013 Posted May 19, 2013 We're not keeping Ortiz and Jenkins both up We have a sub par 3 man bench and a bullpen with one too many There are lots of guys (Lincoln, Storey, Jenkins) with options And we got an unexpected off day today Something's gotta give What happens this week
Deadpool Old-Timey Member Posted May 19, 2013 Posted May 19, 2013 I think (hope?) that Thole gets promoted... Blanco could easily get sent down, as he's not in a position to refuse an assignment and he should easily clear waivers. I'd also say Lincoln gets sent down, but not sure who replaces him... I'd say Negrych, but without him being on the 40 man it's less likely.
Caper Verified Member Posted May 19, 2013 Posted May 19, 2013 I agree with Thole. There is simply no reason to run Blanco out there.... it's giving up ab's at a time you simply cannot afford to give up AB's.
BlueJayWay Verified Member Posted May 19, 2013 Posted May 19, 2013 I say they bring up another reliever. Just for the lolz
G-Snarls Community Moderator Posted May 19, 2013 Author Posted May 19, 2013 I say they bring up another reliever. Just for the lolz Yeah, watch him option Lincoln to Buffalo, just to call up Jeffress. LOL.
G-Snarls Community Moderator Posted May 19, 2013 Author Posted May 19, 2013 Here's another point. We have a bunch of games coming up in National League parks. (Atlanta, San Diego, San Francisco) You absolutely HAVE to have some bats on the bench during those games to pinch hit/run for your pitchers. He'd better shrink the bullpen before then.
G-Snarls Community Moderator Posted May 19, 2013 Author Posted May 19, 2013 We also need Josh Johnson back. He can actually hit. LOL.
theblujay Verified Member Posted May 19, 2013 Posted May 19, 2013 Call up Negrych for interleague play. Or Sierra if Melky is still banged up.
Deadpool Old-Timey Member Posted May 19, 2013 Posted May 19, 2013 Call up Negrych for interleague play. Or Sierra if Melky is still banged up. Sierra's more likely just because he's on the 40 man.
declan_44 Verified Member Posted May 19, 2013 Posted May 19, 2013 Call up Negrych for interleague play. Or Sierra if Melky is still banged up. I'd like to see Sierra again, but I don't want to take Melky out of the lineup
o2cui2i Community Moderator Posted May 19, 2013 Posted May 19, 2013 Yeah, watch him option Lincoln to Buffalo, just to call up Jeffress. LOL. LOL nothing would surprise me at this point. AA has such a boner for useless bullpen arms.
G-Snarls Community Moderator Posted May 19, 2013 Author Posted May 19, 2013 LOL nothing would surprise me at this point. AA has such a boner for useless bullpen arms. Esmil Rogers!!!
KSaw Verified Member Posted May 19, 2013 Posted May 19, 2013 Esmil Rogers!!! He's almost as bad as Bonifacio. Dead weight brothers.
Angrioter Old-Timey Member Posted May 20, 2013 Posted May 20, 2013 The Jays will claim another s*** player.
Deadpool Old-Timey Member Posted May 20, 2013 Posted May 20, 2013 The Jays will claim another s*** player. No fair choosing the most obvious thing ever!
John_Havok Old-Timey Member Posted May 20, 2013 Posted May 20, 2013 No fair choosing the most obvious thing ever! Well to be more specific, AA will claim another crap pen arm only to dfa/assign to Buffalo.
The_DH Verified Member Posted May 20, 2013 Posted May 20, 2013 Hey maybe we have a new statistic: forget WAR, OPS and so on Now it's transactions per win!! Go AA!!
ElNik2013 Old-Timey Member Posted May 20, 2013 Posted May 20, 2013 No one guessed Gose would be called up
Angrioter Old-Timey Member Posted May 20, 2013 Posted May 20, 2013 No one guessed Gose would be called up Because we are smart and this was a crappy idea
G-Snarls Community Moderator Posted May 20, 2013 Author Posted May 20, 2013 No one guessed Gose would be called up Nope It doesn't make much sense either I'm a Gose fan but he needs full playing time to develop his hitting, the team is in a vulnerable spot, and he's slumping right now It's a serious gamble
ElNik2013 Old-Timey Member Posted May 20, 2013 Posted May 20, 2013 Nope It doesn't make much sense either I'm a Gose fan but he needs full playing time to develop his hitting, the team is in a vulnerable spot, and he's slumping right now It's a serious gamble Oh, I'm with you. AA's just trying to maintain his ninja reputation. Hey, maybe Gose will surprise and provide a spark, here's hoping!
