daggins Posted September 3, 2020 Share Posted September 3, 2020 (edited) Probably for the best. Getting hammered for 2-3 innings a go isn't going to help him figure out whats wrong. I would guess we see him as a reliever at the end of the season. Edited September 3, 2020 by daggins 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mqr Posted September 3, 2020 Share Posted September 3, 2020 I, uh, didn't see that coming yet. I'm sure his comments last night didn't exactly engender any sympathy. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

southsider2k5 Posted September 3, 2020 Share Posted September 3, 2020 We needed a pitcher able to give us multiple innings with the state of the pen right now. I am kind of surprised we also didn't see a Burdi for Hamilton swap to get another fresher arm into the organization. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dick Allen Posted September 3, 2020 Share Posted September 3, 2020 He has sucked, but he's a better piece to throw in the bullpen than Flores. I am not a fan of this move. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I am not a fan of this move. I'm guessing they're going to work with him in Schaumburg on how to approach being a reliever etc., and then we see him back up in a week or so in that role. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Probably didn’t help any, but the quick hook last night tells me the decision was basically already made. Only a good outing would have prevented the move.

Along the lines of complaining about being yanked and not understanding why he was. Probably the 54 pitches through 1.2, friend. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ScootsMcGoots Posted September 3, 2020 Share Posted September 3, 2020 While I'd like to hope Mazara is going to turn it around soon, I hope after a couple more days of him grounding out to 2nd and striking out would warrant a "Nomar Mazara optioned to Schaumburg, Andrew Vaughn called up to play RF because he can" thread.

Squirmin' for Yermin Posted September 3, 2020 Share Posted September 3, 2020 I am a real big fan of Flores. I like this move. I assume Flores will take the start next time around until Rodon is healthy? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
daggins Posted September 3, 2020 Share Posted September 3, 2020 I don't think Mazara can be optioned, and i'm also pretty certain Vaughn can't play RF. I do think they'll play Engel more, though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I assume Flores will take the start next time around until Rodon is healthy? The last discussion was of Rodon getting a sim start of around 60 pitches. Reading between the lines, they were getting him ready to start again up here, so I would guess he would take the next start, and not Flores.

I do think they'll play Engel more, though. I thought the same thing, but I read a pre draft scouting report the other day that specifically stated he could be potentially moved to a corner outfield spot. Said that although he is slow, he is athletic enough to handle it. He used to pitch, so presumably he has the arm for it Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Timmy U Posted September 3, 2020 Share Posted September 3, 2020 Had to do it. Not like Cease is a lock to give you 6+. Rest of pen on fumes. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Donny Lucy's Avocado Farm Posted September 3, 2020 Share Posted September 3, 2020 after his criticism of Rentaria pulling him "too early" I wonder how he'd respond to the suggestion of a bullpen role? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
