Bring up all the kids who could be potential bullpen arms. Need to see what they got now.

Nothing like filling up that 40 man roster... should be a fun and interesting off season.
Coppy
Hell yeah. Wanted to see this guy for a while.
Ivermectin Man
Sweet! Now this is a good move!
I don't get it.

Was he going to have to be on the 40 man this offseason anyway?
Either way, it's exciting to see the kids play. I try to forget about rule 5 and other roster concerns when I can.
Minter seems like a ticking time bomb. Might as well have him producing at the MLB level until his arm falls off.

If he hadn't had the early season setback, he was in the plans to be called up before June. He's an older, college guy(24 in two weeks) and ready is ready.
For the hundreth time, you can't call them all up at the same time; you have to stagger their clocks to better pay the longer, bigger contracts.
Wonder if this is a precursor to a DFA for Brothers. Fried goes back down to start, and Brothers gets cut loose when Krol is activated.
Has there EVER been a statement and question a certain someone should absolutely never have made and asked publicly more than...
Kinda pathetic to see yourself as a message board knight in shining armor. How impotent does someone have to be in real life to resort to playing hero on a message board?
With that said, he better be used in late inning situations, not just wasted in garbage games...Minter, Ramirez, Arodys - 7th, 8th and 9th is a nasty backend if Minter can stay healthy (big if)
