Guest JimH Posted March 27, 2006 Share Posted March 27, 2006 Sean Tracey, Ryan Sweeney, Andy Gonzalez, Armando Almanza, Robert Valido and Gustavo Molina reassigned after today's game. There are 28 guys left in camp. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest JimH Posted March 27, 2006 Share Posted March 27, 2006 (edited) And those 28 are: C - Pierzynski, Widger DH - Thome 1B - Konerko, Gload 2B - Iguchi, Cintron SS - Uribe, Ozuna 3B - Crede OF - Podsednik, Anderson, Dye, Mackowiak Pitchers - Buehrle, Garcia, Contreras, Garland, Vazquez, Jenks, Cotts, Hermanson, Politte, McCarthy, Lopez, Logan, Thornton, Redding, Nomo Nomo will be reassigned or traded for sure, Hermanson goes on the DL. That means Redding or one of the lefties will get shipped out. With the way Gload has performed I think he's made the team. Great spring for Ross Gload. Barring, of course, a last minute trade. Edit: my mistake, I forgot Politte. So I count 29, unless they are assuming Hermanson on the DL already.

Flash Tizzle Posted March 27, 2006 Share Posted March 27, 2006 Nomo, Redding, Lopez should be the remaining three cut off the roster. Of the three, I'd only bother assigning Lopez to Charlotte. I've seen enough of Nomo's BP fastball, and Redding's rolling curveball. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Balta1701 Posted March 27, 2006 Share Posted March 27, 2006 It's very impolite of you to have forgotten Clifford. Took me a minute to figure out why it seemed like you could keep both Logan and Lopez. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest JimH Posted March 27, 2006 Share Posted March 27, 2006 (edited) Assuming they give Thornton a spot, which I believe they will, it means one of Lopez, Logan, or Redding make the team. Also assuming 11 pitchers. Since Thornton is the garbage innings guy, it appears there's no spot for Redding. If that's the case it comes down to Logan or Lopez.

Just for discussion, I wonder if they are thinking they'd like to keep Javier Lopez for a month or so and see what they've really got, and option Boone Logan out. It might not be the most fair solution, but maybe it's the easiest? I can pretty much guarantee that it's being discussed. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jordan4life_2007 Posted March 27, 2006 Share Posted March 27, 2006 Is anybody just relieved that we've got some decent options going into the season? I was scared that none of the guys we brought in were gonna do jack. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AngelasDaddy0427 Posted March 27, 2006 Share Posted March 27, 2006 They need to cut Redding, Nomo, and Logan... LOGAN IS NOT READY!!! He's going to end up being Arnie Munoz'd and lose his confidence forever! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He had a good spring too. <{POST_SNAPBACK}> Latest News Mar. 26, 2006 - 8:58 pm et Cardinals released RHP Jeff Nelson. A shocker. Nelson apparently struggled in a minor league game last week, but he had allowed one hit over 5 1/3 scoreless innings in major league games. His phone will probably be ringing off the hook for the next couple of days. Nelson's departure appears to clear the way for Josh Hancock to win a bullpen spt. Source: Cardinals.mlb.com SIGN HIM NOW.

SSH2005 Posted March 27, 2006 Share Posted March 27, 2006 I would sign Nelson, send Ozuna to AAA, and then try to slip Thornton through waivers to AAA later in the season and bring Ozuna back up. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He might be worth a couple of prospects to the cubs... <{POST_SNAPBACK}> I read that he's not on the block anymore. He also had to leave today's game after three pitches because of a lower back strain. Jeff Nelson (ST stats): 5.2 IP, 1 H, 3 BB, 7 K, 0.00 ERA Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
