Hopefully this is just a way to limit Carlos' workload and have him ready to go for October.

So who pitches the Field of Dreams game tomorrow, Jimmy Lambert?

Who could've saw this coming, aside from just about everyone?

Maybe Lynn gets pushed to tomorrow.

That's really what I think this is. Sucks he isn't going tomorrow, but this almost seems like this specific DL trip was always part of the plan. 

Pretty sure the agents at CLT and ORD are getting to know Matt Foster pretty well, by now.

I was going to say that’s what I would do and have a bullpen day or someone from Charlotte pitch. Field of Dreams game aside, I’d rather Lynn faced the Yankees than Twins.

I'm okay with limiting his innings.  Just odd that they advertised he'd be pitching in the Field of Dreams game then put him on the IL.

Mods plz merge with the original thread.

Kopech hasn't pitched in what 3-4 days, likely he's going to be held out tonight and he will start the FOD game and hopefully give us 3 IP. Followed by a bunch of 1 inning bull pen relief!

Agreed. If this was a phantom IL trip you’d think they’d do it after the field of dreams game.

Definitely.  I'd rather see Lambert and Lopez team up for another 6 innings today and have Lynn go against the Yankees.

I'd be really surprised if the Sox roll Lambert out there tomorrow.

LOL

THis isn't right, Lopez goes today, Lynn is the FoD starter.
