    Yeah there must be some kind of trade at least being discussed. The White Sox just signed Jared Walsh so that throws a little cold water on the idea of them acquiring Abre.

    Gotta go with a short short leash and have Nolan ready to come in.

    Right, because he doesn't pitch past the 3rd

    Announce his presence with authority, hit the mascot.

    Oh hell, it's a home game, nevermind.

    I do have Orbit stories, however.

    Seems like a good plan to move him to the bullpen!

    Hunter Brown in 5 appearances has only logged 17.2 innings.
    That is only 3.5 innings per outing :eek:

    Roughly tied with Spaghetti for worst on the club among starters.

    Relax. He will play 1B. They are working on the moves to clear the position. They cannot publicly acknowledge that Loperfido is the everyday 1B while Abreu is still on the roster. And it will be good for Loperfido to get a few games under his belt playing a position he is more comfortable at. 4-5 more games of Abreu/Singleton ain’t no big deal.

    Once a couple of more guys get healthy, I would have no problem with trying out the "opener" with a couple of these guys.
