August 17, 201213 yr QUOTE (Tdog32 @ Aug 17, 2012 -> 04:48 AM) Hector Santiago headed back to the bigs... Interesting. I'd guess the reason is one of the following... 1. Hudson DL/DFA 2. Olmedo back down 3. Beckham DL 4. Veal back down 5. Septimo back down Then I figure Hector will be used to extend the rotation a day or spot start for Sale, Peavy or The Serpent.

LOL. Thanks for the info TDog. Edited August 17, 201213 yr by southsider2k5
August 17, 201213 yr Sounds like Sale, Peavy, or Q needs a day off and will have a start skipped. Hopefully nothing serious.

Yeah, this means the Sox are going to need to make two roster moves today, assuming PK is ready to go.

Septimo back down Then I figure Hector will be used to extend the rotation a day or spot start for Sale, Peavy or The Serpent. Remember, Septimo would have to clear waivers to go back to Charlotte, and Septimo would be very unlikely to clear waivers.

August 17, 201213 yr Thinking outside of the box... Phil Humber just pitched two days in a row. Does he have an option left?
August 17, 201213 yr QUOTE (HickoryHuskers @ Aug 17, 2012 -> 09:00 AM) Does he have an option left? No, he would also have to clear waivers, which he would be unlikely to do.
August 17, 201213 yr When did Santiago last start? Would he be available to go 5-6 innings this weekend?
August 17, 201213 yr QUOTE (LittleHurt05 @ Aug 17, 2012 -> 09:14 AM) When did Santiago last start? Would he be available to go 5-6 innings this weekend? He threw 6.1 innings on the 13th, so Saturday (the 18th) would be normal rest.

August 17, 201213 yr I wonder if its Thornton. When he left the game the other night, while he was coming out anyway, Hawk said AJ wanted Robin to come out before he actually came out to remove him. I wonder if he had something wrong with him.

When he left the game the other night, while he was coming out anyway, Hawk said AJ wanted Robin to come out before he actually came out to remove him. I wonder if he had something wrong with him. I do remember Hawk saying that, but he never really mentioned anything else. If it is Thornton, I wonder who Soxtalk's new bullpen whipping boy will be? I rate Septimo as a 8-5 favorite.
August 17, 201213 yr QUOTE (SOXOBAMA @ Aug 17, 2012 -> 07:59 AM) I guess the Sox will be sending 2 players to the minors today Or 2 to minors and 1 to DL Or 2 to DL

August 17, 201213 yr QUOTE (southsider2k5 @ Aug 17, 2012 -> 08:05 AM) Septimo without a doubt. Yep, that's a no-brainer..
August 17, 201213 yr If both Veal and Septimo have to be exposed to waivers, I'd try to keep both. Neither would make it through and there's potential for quality there both this year and down the line. My guess is Olmedo goes because the Sox believe he'll pass waivers (or don't care if he's claimed) and then someone else hits the DL. Maybe Jones and Olmedo otherwise. Santiago coming up does seem to indicate the loss of another lefty or a starter, but I can't see them just letting go of Veal or Septimo for nothing and I don't think anyone else is hurt. Hmm.
