So who comes off the 40 man? 

[eddie83]

Anderson DFA seems obvious. Other player not so sure. 

[Frobby]

I’m flipping out over this!   Put Knight in the closet role immediately!

[emmett16]

Will he backflip for a hold or does it have to be a save?

What is the closet role?  Haha

 

Hope he gets the chance.

So many options to choose from.  Another BP arm?  Plutko?

Possible. Could even be Leyba.

I thought he was already optioned or DFA'd for Martin. 

Very happy for Knight. I have been calling for Knight for a while now, hopefully he doesn't let me down.

Always good to see one of your top prospects make the majors the same year he appears in the Future's Game.

I think he is still on 40. They need to make one move for a 26 man spot and 2 for 40. Wells already sent down last night is one 40 man spot. Anderson would take care of both assuming he is gone.

I'm pleased for Knight, but why do they continue with the charade that Diplan is a real prospect?  

[OsFanSinceThe80s]

Diplan! Diplan!

This is where I'm at, although, you know, might as well try out Diplan since he's got solid numbers this year. The O's have already DFA'd him once I believe, so I thought it was odd that he went to the Futures Game.

They need an arm. I don’t think this is some projection of his greatness. Just trying to get through season.
