May 12, 201411 yr I was out of from Friday until yesterday and watched a little of the 9th and thought that was him pitching.

With Liddi being released then I assume they will bring up a position player up from AA or they are bringing someone down.. Not sure where their roster is at though.. There are other guys on here that would know more

Not sure about the Liddi spot, but I doubt it is Micah, hard to get him playing time that way. Maybe Ravelo.

Maybe Ravelo. Couldn't they move Sanchez to SS, make Saladino the backup? Then when Kepp comes back, Garcia can get demoted (even though Semien should I don't think the Sox will do that) and become the super sub, with Saladino back to Birmingham.

I don't think they want to do that if they can avoid it. Sanchez and Davidson are still considered prospects, and Saladino has perhaps reached that point as well. None of the three should be demoted. One scenario is to have Micah come up and essentially rotate the four of them around the 3 skill infield spots and DH, so they all get nearly full-time play. Problem with that is, you already have 2 1B/DH's on that roster (Wilkins, Black) - so you may see, for example, Dan Black get shipped back to B-Ham (since he's started somewhat cold), allowing for that flexibility. I just don't see them making Saladino a bench guy or demoting him, at least not yet.
