June 16, 201015 yr QUOTE (chimpy2121 @ Jun 15, 2010 -> 08:33 PM) Pedro Alvarez being called up. Someone look out for J4L in case he has a heart attack with all these young guys getting the call.

QUOTE (fathom @ Jun 15, 2010 -> 11:08 PM) Who's next? I'm thinking Jeremy Hellickson or Desmond Jennings. Maybe even both.
June 16, 201015 yr QUOTE (Jordan4life @ Jun 16, 2010 -> 01:42 AM) Oh yes, you know me oh so well. I'm thinking Jeremy Hellickson or Desmond Jennings. Maybe even both. Not as much hype with him, but I still cannot believe that Kila is in AAA. He's fallen back a bit, and his slash line is now just .327/.502/.586/1.089. 502 f***ing OBP - the pitchers in AAA are just not even pitching to him, he's doing this with no lineup protection. He's also got 58 BB against just 39 K. He's got to come up soon. Did he sleep with the GM's daughter or something?
June 16, 201015 yr QUOTE (Chet Kincaid @ Jun 16, 2010 -> 06:58 AM) David DeJesus is on the market. Can we use him? Do we want him? Can we get him? I would love DeJesus as our leadoff hitter.
June 16, 201015 yr QUOTE (Jordan4life @ Jun 16, 2010 -> 01:42 AM) I'm thinking Jeremy Hellickson or Desmond Jennings. Maybe even both. Jennings is blocked. He would have been up a LONG time ago. (probably even last year) Hellickson is a good candidate. I would put a couple of young relievers ahead that most probably won't know, but if I had to choose a position player or starting pitcher... I'll say either Logan Morrison or Brett Wallace (only if Toronto falls out of it.. guys like Chapman have to get his s*** together for a while) possibly Jarrod Parker as far as September as the D-Backs well.... suck.

June 16, 201015 yr Someone needs to go to the KC GM, drop down $3 mil and take Gordon, and Kila away from him.
June 17, 201015 yr QUOTE (Thunderbolt @ Jun 16, 2010 -> 11:20 PM) Renyel Pinto was just DFA'd by the Marlins. You know what to do, Kenny. My god that would be heaven. Still young, and is that "other" lefty I wanted KW to get in the off-season that isn't Randy Williams. I wonder though if the Marlins know something about that hip injury that most don't. Still though, a heck of an arm I would LOVE to get.

June 17, 201015 yr Pinto has very bad control...he's better than Williams, but that's not saying much. Also, it's interesting reading Reds message boards. They are freaking out about their starting pitching. Can't really blame them, as they're screwed if Volzquez can't return.

June 18, 201015 yr Has anyone checked out Arthur Rhodes' stats this season? I remember him starting in the majors while I was playing Little League.

June 18, 201015 yr QUOTE (Kalapse @ Jun 18, 2010 -> 02:43 AM) His ERA+ is 1327 Only run was a HR to Jeff Baker, I believe
June 18, 201015 yr QUOTE (fathom @ Jun 17, 2010 -> 08:45 PM) Only run was a HR to Jeff Baker, I believe Yep and unfortunately for Rhodes it cost them the game. He's also stranded 18 of 20 inherited runners, neither of the 2 he allowed really cost the Reds.
June 18, 201015 yr QUOTE (witesoxfan @ Jun 17, 2010 -> 08:53 PM) Remember when Joba Chamberlain was good? All the moving from reliever to starter and then back hasn't helped. Edited June 18, 201015 yr by chw42
June 18, 201015 yr Chamberlain should have been left at setup. He was pretty awesome at that when he came up.
June 18, 201015 yr He's actually had like 3-4 really bad outings...he's actually been a decent reliever overall. Speaking of players on the Yankees, how f***ing good is Robinson Cano? Jesus.
June 18, 201015 yr QUOTE (Kalapse @ Jun 17, 2010 -> 08:59 PM) These Braves are looking pretty f***ing good. As are the Mets. The top of the NL East should be quite competitive going forward.
