maggsmaggs Posted May 27, 2014 Share Posted May 27, 2014 QUOTE (southsider2k5 @ May 27, 2014 -> 03:52 PM) Colleen Kane @ChiTribKane 23m White Sox have removed Felipe Paulino from his rehab assignment with AAA Charlotte because of right shoulder soreness. He's still on the DL. Just DFA the bum already. I suppose the Sox could be holding out hope that he becomes a useful bullpen arm. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Especially in the minors, the Sox (and other clubs) make some pretty sketchy use of the DL. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

witesoxfan Posted May 27, 2014 Share Posted May 27, 2014 I couldn't have been more wrong on Paulino, but yes, it's time they move him to the bullpen to try and recoup some value for him. If not, not a big loss overall. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jake Posted May 27, 2014 Share Posted May 27, 2014 He fares best earning above minimum MLB salary with us and getting lots of chances to prove himself in AAA. If he complained and we cut him loose, he'd have to go on a minor league deal with somebody who won't be fan of him pitching terribly in the minors Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dick Allen Posted May 28, 2014 Share Posted May 28, 2014 He gets DL'd with an inflamed shoulder after getting lit up and saying he felt great and would be better the next time out during the post game. There was no report of him having said shoulder examined, not that it means he didn't, but usually you hear something. He goes on a rehab assignment, gets lit up several outings, and the shoulder is suddenly a problem again when the rehab assignment is about up. Hmmmmmmmmm.

I must be getting really old. I actually agree with you. Of course it was a gamble. Sox offered up a couple of mill or whatever for a guy who was absolutely horrid in Colorado 3 years ago. I witnessed that mess. It took a while, but the Rockettes finally DFA'd him and ate his contract. More recently, he was lousy in the minors in 2013, so naturally Sox gave him his comeback opportunity for 2014. Bad gamble. Right up there with Mitch Boggs. Pete and rePete. I like what you said about Ubaldo. That would have been a more interesting gamble. The other two never had a chance. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was being sarcastic about Ubaldo, but when the team is rebuilding or retooling, they need to take chances on stuff guys. You do that and you occasionally end up with Rick White or Mike Jackson, or you sometimes get a Cliff Politte or Tom Gordon or JJ Putz or Esteban Loaiza. In the end, if you lose it, you lose it and you move on. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

QUOTE (witesoxfan @ May 28, 2014 -> 08:14 AM) It was a gamble. Suggesting it was anything else is ludicrous. For virtually every team in baseball, the 5th starter is a gamble - some marginal guy, a young prospect, or a flier like Paulino. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's Rick Hahn. If he misses more than he hits, he'll be fired. Put the pitchfork away and save it for situations that will actually affect our ability to compete. Like if we had signed Ubaldo or something. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
