Would Hardy to the DL mean a call up of Reimold/Parmelee?

If Hardy is going on the DL and is expected to be out for a month, they should start thinking more about 2016 than 2015. Any combination of Flaherty, Pearce, Cabrera, and Janish is not going to get this team moving in the right direction. If they want to take a look at guys like Parmalee an Janish, fine, but they might be better off looking to deal Davis and Chen for players who will help for a few years.

Not sure you will get better value then the draft picks if you hit them with a QO. I think by the deadline they should have a fair idea if Davis will net them a pick.

Do the O's need 13 pitchers. The pitching has been pretty good. Its the hitting that needs help.

Keep in mind that Brian Matusz's appeal will be held tomorrow, and his suspension (for however long it ends up being) will begin shortly thereafter. The O's can't replace him on the roster, so they might want to call up a pitcher so that they still have 12 active pitchers. That means they'd have to make do with 12 position players for a little bit.

Makes sense.

I know Hardy is listed day-to-day, but with soreness on his left side. Like Roch said, that's close to his oblique injury.

Knowing how the O's work, they will wait until Weiters returns to DL Hardy. They treat us like children when it comes to injuries. Just like at the end of ST when I said that I take whatever the O's initially say and multiply it by 10 with injuries. At the time it was concerning MW. And we see he's just now coming back. And I got killed for saying that.

Just give it to us straight. Hardy is going to be out with an oblique. I care about the O's winning. If they know he's going to be out and are playing short handed then they care more about PR rather than playing with a 25 man roster. So much for giving the team the best chance to win.

Some of us deserve to be treated as children IMO. Buck doesn't want other managers to know who will be available from day to day. Seems reasonable to me.

You didn't get "killed" for anything. No One knows how these injuries will respond. And the injury report is not a feel good exercise.

I was one of the people who thought Matt would be back around this time. It was Boras who said he was ready this spring.

      Is O’Hearn that much worse than Mountcastle at 1B?  I don’t think so.

      The 2024 Trade Deadline

      By Allan Bryant · Posted

      I understand your case and logic for Skubal  . I do like him too . However I question whether the Tigers will trade him and secondly , is Elias willing pay the high costs to acquire him ?  Knowing Elias , I’m not sure 🤷‍♂️

      Trade Proposal: Fedde & Kopech for Norby & Beavers

      By Chicago White Sox · Posted

      But that’s my point, who are all these flawless options?  By no means do you have to trade for our guys, but it’s not a stellar group of starting pitchers.  You’ll likely take on some risk with whomever you acquire.  I don’t like taking specific comments and then generalizing the whole board, but there is quite a bit of nitpicking going on from a large group of posters on almost all the SP options not named Skubal as well as some overvaluing of your lesser prospects who are unlikely to get something of value.  Getting an impactful SP in this market is going to hurt one way or the other, you just have to decide what trade offs are you willing to take. I do appreciate your viewpoints because you seem capable of saying something might be fair in terms of value, but at the same time not be a trade you’d actually make.  Personally, I think Crochet would be a massive coup for you guys at the price I just mentioned, but I can respect if you feel he’s too risky.  I’m not sure there will another SP like him available in terms of potential impact and now is the time you guys should really be going for it.

      Do we let Povich make his next start against the NYY?

      By now · Posted

      Thinking of Povich today after practicing flute--trying some note sequences that sounded way off, compared to some that were harmonically pleasing. Sometimes the biggest help to learning is find out what doesn't work. In other words, I'm betting on a good outing next time out, whether it's vs. NY or someone else. It can help to get beat up by the pros once in a while.

      Runs in the playoffs are generally at a premium, you want your best defenders in the game so you don't give away free runs. Mountcastle will be starting in the playoffs.

      We’re trotting out A lineup out there and Mounty is hitting 7th and Cowser is on the bench. Both have really ugly numbers since May 1 basically.  We’re discussing game 3 SP, why not discuss do we want Mountcastle starting in the playoffs if it’s not against a LHP?  I’d say no.  As analytic and swing decision our FO is, I bet they want to get rid of Mounty. He was a necessary dude to get us here, but not anymore. Not with Mayo behind him. Mounty might benefit numbers wise, not approach, to get away from the Wall.  Would a contender want him?  If so, which one?  I don’t see why a rebuilding team would want him.  Could we buy and sell at the deadline?
