Regarding Lester, shouldn't he still have options?  He started in pro ball in 2015, but he didn't get called up to the big leagues until last year, when the Tigers gave him his debut. 

So surely he's only used one option?  If so, we don't need to DFA him when we send him back down.

I think the real issue is do you want him taking up a slot on the 40 man?

I actually wrote out a moderately long post last night about how Lester (and Diaz too) were performing in AAA and how Mountcastle should look over his shoulder. I decided not to post it because I thou

Basically Elias saying he can pass this guy through waivers later. He has been hitting in AAA though

Lester has options. If there is a reason maybe it is wanting to keep everyone other than Lester available? If we lose him for 10 days no big deal. We don't need a reliever today so he can go back down after the game.

If he was on the 40 man roster any of the years prior to 2022, and spent the entire season in the minors, then he used an option that year too.

I would not be surprised to see Mountcastle sit tomorrow. 

I agree. Last night Hyde said he gave Mountcastle the night off because he's been "scuffling." So he didn't describe it as just a regular night off.

Doubtful we see Tate this year. 

Right flexor forearm strains that need to be shut back down typical end up seeing a surgeon for TJ surgery. It may be surprising to see him next year if they don't go ahead and get it over with.

As someone who likes Tate alot, this is depressing to think about. I guess I'm going to have to go back to 2022 and watch some of his highlights or the game that I still have recorded in order to see him play. Because I'm also getting the same feeling as you guys... I'm not sure we will get to see him play (and at a competitive level) this season.

Here is a guess:   Kjerstad is being promoted to AAA on Monday.  Taking Lester's spot.   So they promote Lester to the majors as a reward.   Even if it will not last long.

Just a guess.

Just saw Cowser is back with the Tides.

They still need to save a spot for Hudson Haskin to return from his Bowie rehab assignment. But I don't think it matters because there doesn't seem to be roster limitations in the minor leagues like there are in the Major League Active Roster and Secondary (40 Man) Roster. I could be wrong though.

This makes sense and I’d be curious to know why that wasn’t done this past offseason. 
 

I’m assuming that they thought rehab was a good way to go but that seems to have backfired. Go ahead and get it over with, I agree.

But isn't Lester a 3B and Diaz is the 1B? Unless 2 of Gunnar or Urias and Ortiz are not available this doesn't add up.

      What does the Bradish injury really mean?

      By jabba72 · Posted

      This clip shows Bradish shaking his elbow a few times. Also throwing 99 which might have had something to do with it. I hope he learned his limitations.  Kyle Bradish's strong start against Phillies | 06/14/2024 | MLB.com

      The 2024 Trade Deadline

      By Just Regular · Posted

      I'm kind of heading towards rooting for Kjerstad or Beavers to be trade centerpiece of whatever comes. EBJ's 2024 has been pretty tepid so he is not at a good sell point.     Norby seems to fit well as a backup to future outfields mostly made up of Cowser-Mullins-Kjerstad-Beavers-EBJ. The other 29 clubs, including whatever dozen odd end up selling next month - there are probably enough variances in their takes on Kjerstad and Beavers there is something Elias can arbitrage. I take it as a given someone like Seth Johnson or Trace Bright at least will be a secondary piece, guessing Povich-McDermott-De Leon-Forret maybe represent a tier Elias prefers to keep.

      Its always easier in hindsight, but letting Kyle Gibson go, could end up being a glaring error.

      Gibson has a career 5.09 ERA in the 2nd half. And he turns 37 in October. He's due for some regression.

      Yeah I am kind of torn on that.   Obviously you don't something actually on the ball so that the ball may go through the air differently, but if pitchers are having to over compensate to try and get the grip and therefore the spin that they want.....then is it worth it to allow a substance so you can avoid all of these injuries?   Let a pitcher keep something sticky on his glove or hat and allow him to be able to touch that area if he wants.  I really don't see a problem with it. For example, as much as some of you hate my bowling references, in bowling we do the same exact thing that a pitcher does, try to get as good a grip as possible so that we can create as many rpm revs, spin and hook as possible.  All the best bowlers have rev rates in the 500s and we are all allowed to put whatever we want on our hands to create that.  Rosin.  Stickem.   Tape on the fingers.  Tape inside of the bowling ball fingers.....whatever.  And I have never in my life heard anyone say that doing that should be illegal.  It is legal, everyone does it, and no one has a problem with it.  We are also allowed to surface our balls with a sand paper like pad that can give it a surface that hooks more, or a surface that hooks less. Again, all perfectly legal.  I think baseball may have to adjust their thinking on this if pitchers keep falling like flies.

      That probably happens but its not a big deal. Smartphones probably do tons of data tracking on what you search online. And they know exactly where you are at all times.

      I thought trying to resign Flaherty would have been a better choice, assuming he wanted to stay of course.  He had a better track record of being very very good compared to Gibson Again though, I have no idea if he even would have resigned.
