Guy is from the South Suburbs too. Oak Forest.

Has to stay down for 10 days. Sox don't need a 5th starter until the 30th (just checked).

They have 2 off days next week so they sort of don't need a 5th starter for a while. Weird that it wouldn't go to a bullpen piece instead of bench spot though.

Wait, what happened?

He thought it was getting over his head. Dumb though.

This. No point in just sending him home.

Didn't Leury sign an extension for an additional season last offseason?

2022 might be fair. He would probably start in what, A-ball next season? I think he would have to mash at every level to get called up.

Not sure I buy that as Dunning didn't pitch last year and there hasn't really been game action for Collins to catch Dunning (besides spring training and summer camp if they even worked together).

Hopefully Dunning can hold down a spot and Lopez replaces Gonzalez.

Uhhh they control him through next year.

More position versatile than Cuthbert for sure.

Yeah. And this whole time Jerry could have hired you. Wtf was he thinking?

He was basically always pegged to hit 8th, no?

Really is a shame we had to sit through AJ Reed last year after Alonso was released instead of giving either guy all the at bats. It was the perfect opportunity.

Yeah I think it was basically take the team getting really hot and for him to continue slumping.

Not that I think this an option, but when do you dfa/release Edwin? That would also open up at bats and make the team more flexible.

Well, besides Leury until he got hurt.

If the clubhouse is truly torn over him and Plesac, I think its the right thing to do. Although you are correct.

Maybe Cueto? He is signed for next year though which means I'd probably non-tender Rodon.

Also, if Clevinger is held down for about 20 days, Indians would gain an extra year of control over him.

Kind of amazing that Carrasco is even playing this year. Being high risk, if he sat out, he would receive his salary and service time.

He's gone after next year, no?

With no minor league season and him not pitching in games for more than a season, you would be getting a couple inning starts out of him early as he builds his way up.

Lmao what? Why would the Reds trade Bauer?
