LittleHurt05 Posted August 8, 2012 Share Posted August 8, 2012 QUOTE (flavum @ Aug 7, 2012 -> 08:10 PM) Dempster 6 shutout innings so far in Boston. Gave up a 3-run homer to Middlebrooks, but after a 2-out error. 6.2 IP, zero ER and a victory. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cabiness42 Posted August 8, 2012 Share Posted August 8, 2012 Does Flowers have an option left? I don't know, but it's only 23 days until September 1, so if not, slam a door on his hand and stick him on the DL. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Although that's fun to say...the Players Union is watching out for this a lot more these days. You could see the end result of that with the Sox not DLing Dunn last year.

cabiness42 Posted August 8, 2012 Share Posted August 8, 2012 Another possibility is that the Sox rarely use Olmedo and Hudson both in the same game anyway, so you could cut one of them loose and add a 3rd catcher, or shorten the bullpen by one guy. Santiago hardly ever pitches anyway. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Santiago hardly ever pitches anyway. Hector is starting in Charlotte. As a matter of a fact, he just threw five shutout innings in a start today for the Knights. He is unscored on in the 8IP since going back down there as a starter. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NBC probably won't tell us that Santiago got sent to Charlotte until next week. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LittleHurt05 Posted August 9, 2012 Share Posted August 9, 2012 Orioles are going for it, they call up top prospect Manny Machado to play 3rd. I'm no expert on prospects, sounds like the kid has tons of talent, but might not be ready for the majors quite yet. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LittleHurt05 Posted August 9, 2012 Share Posted August 9, 2012 Brett Lawrie to the 15-day DL with an oblique injury. The amount of injuries Toronto has suffered is absolutely ridiculous. Good news for the Sox though, as they head across the border for 4 games next week. Bautista won't be back by then either. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The two 4-game series in Toronto and Baltimore really stand out as huge to me. We gotta take of care of business in Toronto--like 3 of 4. Too many bad years up there recently.

We gotta take of care of business in Toronto--like 3 of 4. Too many bad years up there recently. Especially considering how banged up they are. On offense, Lawrie, Arencibia, Bautista, & Lind are all on the DL. And they have about 5 starters & two relievers injured too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

southsider2k5 Posted August 10, 2012 Author Share Posted August 10, 2012 Jeff Passan @JeffPassan Scary injury stat No. 1: There are currently 52 starting pitchers on the disabled list. That's more than 10 full rotations. Scary injury stat No. 2: Executives project more than $500M lost to DL this year. The vast majority is pitching injuries.
