Because maybe they didn't, it's still sore and now they ran the MRI and see something's up with a ligament It would seem any imaging would have been done before yesterday’s game, and Ricky said there was no concern at all.

Harry Chappas Posted August 20, 2020 Share Posted August 20, 2020 Maybe they are realizing Mazara is not that good. I kind of wondered why Delmonico had not been brought up when we were short handed in the outfield. Also Delmonico is a late inning replacement for defense and LH bat so he makes some sense. As far as Dunning, it allows him to get whatever work he needs in a taxi squad game next game as opposed to RR using him in the wrong spot out of the bullpen.

SonofaRoache Posted August 20, 2020 Share Posted August 20, 2020 (edited) Robert will probably be back tomorrow with Grandal. Delmonico is an extra lefty bat and insurance if an outfielder gets hurt again. Edit: Just saw Ricky's statements, disregard my post.

Look at Ray Ray Run Posted August 20, 2020 Share Posted August 20, 2020 (edited) I saw Robert say "it's not a big deal" so I think it's likely not a big deal. If the Sox were the only people saying it wasn't a big deal, I'd be very panicked thinking it was a very big deal.

If Robert could go, Delmonico would be in Schaumburg, and if they are not trusting Luis Gonzalez to play MLB games, why is he not in Schaumburg. Maybe the plan all along was to start Dunning and send him back. But I would trust him a lot more than Gio Gonzalez at this point.

I think the obvious answer the final question is that the Sox are crazy thin in both the IF and the OF as far are bench players go once Leury went down.

Delmonico is just there because Robert is out today and they don't trust Gonzalez I don't think. I don't think it means Robert's injury is secretly serious or anything like that. Fingers crossed.

It might just be the Sox don't think Dunning is ready to handle the workload, given his return, so think they can do a better job giving him extended rest and the right workouts in his rehabilitation from injury? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Dunning part doesn't bother me at all. He isn't going to start for a 10 days, which allows you to utilize the roster spot for someone else until the spot comes up again. He will be back, I would bet on it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We have same control now, and he would have given us a much better opener in an important game. A few weeks ago Dunning could have probably only gone an inning or two. They specifically said at the time they didn't want to bring Dunning up to only pitch an inning or two. They wanted to get him ready for an outing where it could nearly resemble a real start. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
