    I have no idea why he is still here other than maybe we need a guy to eat up innings until some guys are ready to move up.

    Just noticed that post may have come off in a rude way, and if it did to you, my apologies. Didnt mean that it was your fault he was still here, ha. But no really, sorry.

    You're probably right that we dont have guys ready yet but then again, who cares?:p Wade admitted some of those other guys probably shouldnt be there or that they were rushed. With that said, Im not sure how our minors pitching is or who would be a candidate to be called up.

    I think A.Rodriguez will take his spot but I'm curious about Henry Sosa, threw 7 innings of shutout ball last night, and Lucas Harrell. Harrell was suppose to be the WSox 4th or 5th starter but couldn't handle it, he has been good at OKC after being picked up.

    Why is Jeff Fulchino back? Why bring up a 31 year old on this young team. Juan Abreu and/or Lucas Harrell should have been called up.

    On Sosa, he has had 4 starts between CC and OKC...1 bad start and 3 shutouts with good SO numbers. If Wandy gets dealt then we could see a rotation with Anuery, Lucas and Henry Sosa along with Myers and Norris. Lyles will be shutdown in September, if not sooner.

    Hi, my name is Ed Wade, and my motto is "Buy high, sell low."

    Imagine a discussion/debate between Wade and Morey on general managing philosophy.

    I know... different sports and there is somethiing to be said about both styles but it'd still be funny. Somebody should do one of those little animation vids where you can create the dialogue, like the one somebody did of Morey and Walsh.

    Myers was his one good FA acquisition. Then he had to turn around and hand him a bigger contract.

    Both calls looked wrong to me, not that it matters much.
