  1. Remember when people told me to stop worrying about those two, because Buxton would be back soon? Or Castro... Who is up and they both are.
  2. Seriously. Why? Why give away outs every game?
  3. Luplow and Gallo on the roster just pisses me off.
  4. I am getting ready to join the fire Rocco crowd, ph luplow for Julien? Ridiculous. They'll just bring in RHP the rest of the way.
  5. Also, just cut him open and operate is naive and ignores the fact it doesn't always work and he's a human, not some robot you can just cut up.
  6. There's nothing surprising about Jenkins continuing to play. Martin is healthy. That's the difference. He was a top pick and prospect for a reason. I'm intrigued by the catchers, but it's likely Vazquez blocks them next year no matter how bad he is.
  7. Yes. There might have had to be another small move, but yes. I will say, this way, they get to choose who replaces Miranda, and possibly now Buxton, so that could be the sliver of logic.
  8. To what end? Nothing changes if they do that.
  9. Massive bummer. I hope he does what's right for his long term health. Fans, as I saw in another thread, questioning his toughness are the worst people.
  10. Buxton pulled with knee pain..... Which is why I wanted another CF option than Gallo....
  11. We were on topic for a page and a half! Not bad....
  12. I'm only trading him for a guy I think is a legit, young, starting pitcher, not just to clear space. They need pitching next year and the years after....
  13. My concern is that Martin and Lee will just sit in AAA, providing no value. As this FO and manager defer to veterans. Just like Wallner and Julien until injuries forced their hand.
  14. Martin has to be added after the season, so that isn't it.
  15. He could be in AAA and still be on the 40 man roster.....ready in case Castro or MAT can't play (or Buxton).
  16. it does not matter.....if they know they'll win their petition.
  17. Good for him. I'm hoping he gets a real shot to play.
  18. right....so easy to get him on the 40 man yesterday. My guess is they are assuming MAT and Buxton will be healthy for the playoffs.....and it won't matter.....I don't agree. I see no upside to NOT making him available, just in case.
  19. Sure....if they can deal Lee for a legit SP, I'd consider that too. Probably not Lewis, though his injury history makes me nervous....I see him, if healthy, as a STAR.
  20. Sure he could have, just option a pitcher (or Farmer) for 10 days, but I'm not sure they had to get him on the 26 man, just the 40. The pitcher could be replaced by Varland for those 10 days, for example, today, when the rosters expanded.
  21. He could have been put on the 40 man easily....he can't replace Miranda on the playoff roster unless they win their petition. I agree, I'm glad he's on the roster....
  22. 100% they expect AK, Castro, and Buxton up in the next week or two....in the meantime, Luplow keeps playing. IF Buxton can't play CF, and IF MAT's hammy is still an issue, I'd like there to be another CF option than Gallo on the 40 man....
