That is where I heard it.  So if Joseph embellishing, then I'll gladly retract. I thought it was fact. 

So Caleb Joseph told you personally that Wieters didn't really mentor him at all? That's a thing you're actually saying happened?

I have no insider knowledge. If I didn't get that from a Caleb bit, then I dreamt it. 

An old Roch interview:

Quote

Wieters had taken on a mentor role with Joseph, and the lessons extend outside the clubhouse and the ballpark.

Caleb tells me nothing. So maybe the bit about Wieters keeping to himself when Caleb was called up was a dream. i was certain I read it or heard it somewhere. That he got the hey, how you doing, and nothing else from Wieters.

Has too good of a bat to not keep him on the 25 man. DFA Trumbo for all I care, but I want Cisco on the roster.

Must have been a dream, man. Dunno what you're talking about.

Good up. I recall hearing differently somewhere.

Weams, I respect the heck of you man.

But, honestly, everything I have ever read in MASN, the Sun or Britt has said otherwise.

Not to mention post game interview with Caleb during a west coast that Matt took with the team, even through he had just had surgery. He pointed out that Matt was like a player coach and talking with the pitchers too.

I do recall where I got it now. And I am not free to say. So it must have been false. Matt must have embraced Caleb all the way.

I appreciate that. I got a mindset because of something I thought I heard. I retract it. Matt always appeared to be a nice dude. Chris Tillman told me he was.

Matt wasn't super vocal, and I'm sure he gave Caleb some space at first. But Caleb has lavished praise about Wieters since he's been here, without fail.

If you are the manager you have too.

I said for now. Trumbo is on the DL. Worry about Trumbo when he proves he is actually healthy. Break camp with the best 25, with Sisco at DH.

Do we like Givens?

Back to thread topic.

IMO

I never thought Cisco was going to be on the 25 man roster, unless he had a super duper above A+ Spring, which he hasn't.

He needs more seasoning, so being at AAA, and playing daily, doesn't surprise me.

Nor, should anybody take it as a demotion.
