Rex Hudler Posted April 25, 2004 Share Posted April 25, 2004 Barons radio broadcaster just said that Kris Honel was placed on the DL today and will be replaced by Josh Fields who is scheduled to arrive from Tucson Monday. Apparently no new news on his injury other than just soreness/tendonitis. Just being careful since it is still sore. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rex Hudler Posted April 25, 2004 Author Share Posted April 25, 2004 hopefully he gets better. how long will he be on the DL? Minor League DL is 7 days..... keep in mind that he has already missed 3 starts (3rd one today) so there is no definite timetable. The move to the DL was simply to make room for Fields. When Honel is ready to start, someone else will be moved from the roster. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chisoxfn Posted April 25, 2004 Share Posted April 25, 2004 I'm guessing it was retroactive, so he could basically come off whenever. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BrandoFan Posted April 25, 2004 Share Posted April 25, 2004 Honels and Munozes and Diazes are the future of this franchise, much more so than Yankee and Red Sox prospects are. Â This IS a big deal and I'd rather they shelve him for a month or two just in case. I don't want to see him in the bigs before 2007 anyway, so he'll have plenty of time to catch up.

Cali Posted April 25, 2004 Share Posted April 25, 2004 I don't want to see him in the bigs before 2007 anyway, so he'll have plenty of time to catch up. That would make him 25, if Honel isn't with a big league club by then, whether it the Sox or some one else, then there is a problem with him. He's in AA now so what does he spend 3 years in AAA? Isn't 25 about the time people start losing "prospect" status? I've read the majority of projections that say mid-2005 for Honel as long as he doesn't have any major surgery in the very near future that sounds about right to me.

Cali Posted April 25, 2004 Share Posted April 25, 2004 I thought he was 20. He'll turn 22 in November. So he'd actually be 24 through out the 2007 season and turn 25 in November of '07. My fault. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
