Chisoxfn Posted April 17, 2013 Author Share Posted April 17, 2013 I know....and I'm sick of having that kind of news burried in another thread, that I may or may not skip over (since most of it is filled with a bunch of crap about how he's done or toast). This is actual news I would care about and its great that I can see it pretty quickly. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Ginger Kid Posted April 22, 2013 Share Posted April 22, 2013 Sounds like he has to head back to AZ first... @ESPNChiSox Danks gets his meeting. Needs at least one more outing at extended spring training. Rehab assignment still to come. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I just meant more for the fact that the rotation is the bomb. There's nothing wrong with that facet of the ballclub if Danks replaces Axelrod and can somehow show he has value to other ballclubs.

Just put a plan in place for him to return in August, and go from there. I'm not expecting much from him this year, but I think they want him back by June. Sounds like more extended spring this Friday, and then maybe a few minor league games, whatever they're allowed before being activated. He'll rush back, and be on the DL again by the break. That's what I'm expecting. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Is there a limit for how many rehab assignments he can make? As for hoping for disaster, starting pitching is easily where the Sox are deepest and I'm more concerned about Danks being able to contribute long term than any short term impact he could make this year. The timetable for his return keeps getting pushed back, and all I was saying is that there's no need at all to rush him. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No, if he starts a rehab assignment there is a time limit on the rehab assignment (I believe that is 30 days), but if he's not ready to be called up at the end of that he can be put back on the disabled list, have a few days off, and then begin another rehab assignment.

The Ultimate Champion Posted April 23, 2013 Share Posted April 23, 2013 They need to be as patient with Danks as possible. If they can get him back and looking like the old John Danks around early June (fingers crossed), then the Sox have more than a month to showcase him for a trade. We're not trading Peavy and with no RHSP depth it would be ridiculous to do it unless he specifically requests out, but trading a healthy John Danks to a team in need of good LHSP could really help this organization a lot, since we could expect a couple good looking pieces in return, a large salary off the books, and then Santiago gets the 5th slot. We'd essentially drop a contract and pick up potential future pieces and all we'd have to do after is ask Hector & Axelrod to swap their current roles, where both are likely to fit much better anyway.
