Barring any setbacks, we are no more than 3 weeks away from his return

Which means we should see him by July 40th.

Great news after a terrible loss.

The reward for our two lucky outfielders? Their rehab dates ensure they get to make a trip to northeast Iowa

Just trying to deflect from LaRussa!!!!!

Getting the band back together 👀

Glad Robert is in Winston-Salem.

Eloy can’t injure him at this point.

LET'S FUCKING GOOOOO

As much love as I have for how Billy Hamilton and Brian Goodwin have kept the ship from sinking, I'm also looking forward to not having to watch them all the time. It'll be a shame to see them go though.

Great news. Far earlier than I thought when they diagnosed a grade 3 tear.

Hamilton will stay as the defensive specialist.

I said Robert was almost ready a few days ago.

I would think Hamilton is kept as the defense/speed guy, but with Engel maybe not.  

I think Sheets may get sent down since he has options and so he can get regular reps, which probably won't happen with Eloy and Robert back.

The timing is definitely peculiar. They probably know this DH is gonna go sideways.

Can't come back soon enough

I would say this closes the loop on a RF trade unless Starling Marte somehow is reasonable. Vaughn in Left, Robert in Center and Engel in RF with Billy as backup. I would think lamb gets DFAd or traded also. Did not expect these two back this early...and that only increases the effectiveness of them come October. LOVE this news.

Are they flying charter into Dubuque or Cedar Rapids?   Might need to take Eloy off the plane on a stretcher because those stairs coming off a private jet can be tricky, especially if it’s raining.

I suspect they drop Hamilton instead of Goodwin.  With Engel and Robert, they don’t need a cf, but can use every lefty bat they can find.

Sheets has to be that guy with the power, right?

I would keep both.

I'd be thrilled if when Eloy comes back he can hit as many bombs as Sheets has in the same number of ABs.

Robert I soooo want to see him stay on the field and reach that enormous potential.
