If he can give you back of the rotation action, that's a win for a guy who you got as a 14th round pick. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There are a couple of moves that should be made to get some of the more recent trade acquisitions on the roster to play, but when it comes down to it, if you cut those last three guys out of the pitching staff, who are you replacing them with?

Expand Baldwin plays ss, Sosa plays 2b, Vargas at 3b. Ramos has gotten hot at AAA. Maybe he comes up when Vargas shows he can't play 3rd. Fletcher and DeLoach instead of Sheets. Maybe even give Colas another shot? Quero is ready. Give him the at bats instead of Robinson. Mason Adams for Flexen until Thorpe comes back. Adisyn Coffey instead of Wilson (who can be sent down). AHT for Touki or Leone. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
