April 6, 200718 yr 1) Floyd 2) Masset or Sisco 3) Haeger 4) Adam Russell, starting tonight for B-HAM, so he would be on the same number of days of rest, assuming the White Sox game tomorrow night isn't cancelled. It will be interesting to see, if that happens, if the Twins still use Santana against us and skip someone's turn in the rotation. I'm assuming we will let Danks go, no matter what.
April 6, 200718 yr Floyd I believe was scheduled to go tonight...the Tribune had him listed first in their run-down of Charlotte's pitching staff, and other places had him starting, but it wound up being Phillips. I wouldn't be surprised at all if Heath was inserted as a starter after Buehrle was hit.
April 6, 200718 yr If Mark has to miss a few games i see no reason to deny Masset the spot for now. He's really impressed me.
April 6, 200718 yr Masset will prob stay in the pen. If its not Haeger there is something wrong with this org. Charlie needs the start.
April 6, 200718 yr Wait... whats going on? I thought Mark is still scheduled to pitch his next start... Am I missing something here?

According to Ozzie after the game you're correct...but I can't figure out why Floyd didn't start today if there wasn't some chance of him getting a callup.

April 6, 200718 yr Author QUOTE(Balta1701 @ Apr 5, 2007 -> 08:28 PM) Certainly didn't show it tonight. Russell has given up 2 ER in 5 IP so far tonight. Seems like an Ozzie favorite. Also, you have to take into consideration the weather conditions out in Oakland...if they would be conducive for a knuckleballer or not in early April, in the cold.
April 6, 200718 yr Haeger should be up in any event, let alone if Mark is hurt. Floyd only has 1 option left. Let's not use it while he's still garbage. Let's give him the chance to take what Coop showed him and show us he's a "new pitcher," since he "feels" like one.

Let's give him the chance to take what Coop showed him and show us he's a "new pitcher," since he "feels" like one. How do you suppose he got to the minor leagues this season? That's right. We used his final option. It makes no difference.
April 6, 200718 yr Oh. I stand corrected. Well, partially. I still think we should keep him there until we have to bring him up. But I thought the option system was we could bring him back up and then send him back down. My mistake.
