2 hours ago2 hr 1 hour ago, Jose Abreu said:Completely agree. The bullpen is actually pretty good and like you said, Richards is solid in his mop-up role.And this is another part of why I've been annoyed by the "make every starter prospect a reliever" strategy. Mason Adams could very well be an upgrade over Schultz/Fedde in the rotation. McDougal was brought back as a reliever because they said he wouldn't be fully stretched out until mid-August... well guess what, that's only ~14 days away and he's still in AAA anyway, so you might as well have stretched him out and added him to the MLB rotation. He needs the innings too...I don’t get why we’d move Adams to a relief role. If you’re afraid to add him to the 40 man roster, then keep him as a SP in AAA and treat as an insurance policy in the event other SP options don’t work out. But why create more of a roster crunch to add him to an already overcrowded bullpen? I personally think he’d likely be an upgrade over Schultz & Fedde right now.
2 hours ago2 hr I wonder what Hunter Greene is going to cost someone, if he gets moved. Still feels like this year, the 4 start SSS, is the exception and not the norm.

Bonemer, Braden and Hagen type deal.Wouldn't take that much given his injury and fair but not egregiously team friendly contract. Bonemer and pick two of the orgs 8-15 type guys. That said, I don't have interest. His medical history scares me.
