Carroll was ineligible to be called up because he was sent down less than 10 days ago and there were no injuries.
Johnson pitched in the AAA All Star Game on Wednesday and would not be prepared to pitch today.
I thought the rule was 7 days and not 10, but I guess I was wrong. And I feel like there must have been other options at AAA rather than calling him all the way up from AA.

You're not going to see Montas unless one of these teams scores 6 runs
Why would we have called him up over Carroll or Johnson for one day and not have him pitch

Give Danks his due against his favorite patsies . Do KC fans call him Cy Danks ?
I wish Guthrie pitched tonight instead of tomorrow. Cy Danks vs Cy Guthrie. 1-0 loss in extra innings.

He really is like the anti Royal.
Yeah, a subpar defender, bad baserunner, inconsistent hitter... weird signing for them.

And much, much worse offensively.
It's sad. Would have loved to see his glove in the bigs.
Yeah, he's hitting like .170 at high-A... jeez

My guess, 6-2 Royals victory tonight
You think we get two runs? Anything over zero is probably a bad bet.

Is there an actual legitimate reason to replace Soto with Bonafacio? I seriously cant think of one
Holland is much more effective vs RH hitters
QUOTE (greg775 @ Jul 17, 2015 -> 03:42 PM)
Is there any reason they didn't pitch Sale in Game One to suggest to the Royals maybe we came to compete this weekend? Weird organization. Sale must be hurt or sore or something.
