Sarava Posted August 5, 2018 Share Posted August 5, 2018 12 minutes ago, Jose Abreu said: Well, if it’s not in the next week, it would be a mistake IMO. I can see 2 months of MLB development being greater than a year of possible service time, but not just 1 or so Or they could sign them to extensions at some point and render this whole debate about service time moot. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It could be moot, but until then, it's dumb to call them up. But if it's this year, do it now, so it's less stupid. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So he doesn’t have the flu, just something similar. but it does appear they will forego the service time and call him up soon.

Yea he shouldn't of been in the lineup in the first place with that nasty virus. Glad Grudzielanek took the kid out. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jose Abreu Posted August 5, 2018 Author Share Posted August 5, 2018 Flu-like symptoms the same day Getz says he's "very close to MLB ready" and a day before the Sox begin a 6 game homestand? I'm skeptical 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Obviously keeping Avi in RF Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nicky would probably be the odd man out. Or Davidson. They have to keep Leury. Unless you want to see Engel even more in CF. And dont get me wrong, I am not suggesting losing one of these guys is going to be very painful. Edited August 5, 2018 by Dick Allen Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Honestly, I go back & forth on Palka vs. Nicky. I’d probably lean Delmonico if it were up to me, but I feel like the org will go with Palka. There’s room for both if they cut bait on Davidson, although I don’t see that happening. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
caulfield12 Posted August 5, 2018 Share Posted August 5, 2018 Yeah, you could almost argue Yolmer, but that won’t happen, either. Trade Leury? Engel’s the one guy pretty much nobody cares about remaining on the roster or not. Except for his immediate family. Shields goes, to someone, or Covey to the bullpen and Minaya dfa’d?

One of Nicky/Palka/Davidson goes for Eloy. I’d just DFA Santiago to make room Kopech and move Shields (or Covey) to the pen. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think the org likes Nicky more (hell they featured him on the prospects show last season with CSN) but Palka's power might win out. In either case, either of those guys can go for Eloy.

southsider2k5 Posted August 5, 2018 Share Posted August 5, 2018 I would love to know if Shields and Avi have been run through waivers yet, and if that is what is the hold up on call ups for these two. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
