Vance Worley to AAA Disabled List

[Seth Stohs]

The Rochester Red Wings announced that "RHP Vance Worley was placed on the disabled list with a right shoulder injury."

 

Hopefully nothing serious and just some rest.

[Smcginnity]

So, does someone (Baxendale or May) get called to AAA?

Probably May. Baxendale hasn't pitched much in AA.

Don't they already have a rotation of five? Even without Worley? Albers, Hendriks, Walters, Hernandez and De Vries? Or is De Vries hurt again I can't remember.

 

I'd love to see May get bumped, but I might suspect they'd just recall Vasquez.

If I am not wrong, Hernandez and De Vries are also in the disabled list

[Mr. Ed]

Correct

[Winston Smith]

Pitchers with shoulder issues tend to be bad news at some point.

[70charger]

Kind of figures the way he was pitching. I wonder if he was playing hurt, but not really hurt enough to stop playing.

 

In any case, I hope it really is just a rest and recover kind of thing.

[Oxtung]

Shairon Martis could move back to the rotation. He was in the opening day rotation and started 3 games. If they advance a player from New Britain then AA needs to find a new starter as well. Perhaps Hermsen returns to the rotation or Summers gets called up again from Fort Meyers. There is currently a 6 man rotation at Fort Meyers so promoting to NB shouldn't be a problem.

[Rosterman]

Ah, yes...another pitcher whose name was bandied about as a trade possibility goes down, and his name isn't Blackburn. We WILL see Nick up here before too long.

 

AMidst all the talk about the Twins not trading anyone before the deadline, there is always the waiver wire and the Twins can still move Morneau, Correia, Doumit, Pelfry for a grade-B prospect or just dump salary if they see fit. See that happening if anybody lays claim to one of many warm bodies (Jamey Carroll included...or Josh Roeincke).

I hope they don't make any pure salary dumps, given their low spending. If they get someone who could help, or even if they use the at-bats/innings to give experience to a young guy, that would be palatable, but I would not want to give away players just to give the team an even lower payroll.

I think the Twins will move up May when he's ready, not to arbitrarily fill a roster spot. Baxendale hasn't pitched much in AA at all.

[Intramural Legend]

I am currently working in Philly, and they still love the Vanimal. I hope he figures it out.

NIck Blackburn was called up to AAA
