Wasn't Kline the 26th man for the double header and sent down right after? I thought that exempted him from the 10-day rule.

I was not aware of that.  That would make sense.  Thanks.

Roch reported Branden Kline will be joining the Orioles in Minnesota. No mention of other moves.

Austin Wynns has joined the team in Minnesota according to Roch's blog update.

Right, like how Mancini and Wilkerson can "play OF".  Heck Davis can "play OF", I've seen it.

You are going to make a move for an OF if Mancini is day to day?

Whoa.    I don’t see the O’s keeping 3 catchers.   Sucre DFA?   Someone to the IL?

Mancini was day to day with his knee last year and folks are convinced it bothered him for half the season.

Do we trust Dr Mancini's diagnosis? 

 

To answer the question, no I don't.  Not like this team can look worse by playing a guy out of position.  Heck put one of the relief pitchers out there.

Sucre has been DFA’d, Yacabonis optioned, and Cobb has been placed on the IL.

I'm sure the pitchers will miss Sucre's nurturing presence back there.

Also, totes shocked that Cobb is hurt again.

Wow Sucre DFA-ed! There must have been something behind the scenes. I like Wynns a lot but he’s not close to the catcher that Sucre is.

no big problem with the other moves, although I can’t understand why Yacabonis was optioned instead of Scott. Scott has been consistently bad, and Yac had only last night’s fiasco. He has a longer track record of success so keeping Scott is a head scratcher. Maybe Wright gave the photos to Scott when he left?

Yea, Wynns can't possibly match the 40 OPS+ Sucre is putting up and the pitching is obviously thriving with him behind the plate.

I’m sure the pitchers are going to miss Sucre’s enthusiastic responses to their performance on the mound.

Immediate feedback is invaluable!  Well if you are training your dog not to go on the floor.

He was never healthy in the first place when he was brought off IL. Also, congrats on Sucre!
