Yankees may have lost Montgomery for a while. They are in all in mode so maybe they will overpay for a guy like Teheran.

Now that's a team I think we lineup with well.

I don't know why they'd want Julio in that park, but I can see them making a move for an established innings-eater like Teheran.

Or Dirty Sanchez

or McCarthy if the price is right "Bob"! <--Adam Sandler's voice

Kris Medlen is starting tonight for the D-Backs...I'm rooting for the guy.

Matt Harvey got the DFA from the Mets after refusing a minor league assignment

Would you take a flyer on him, if he would accept a minor league assignment with an opt out to see if he can figure it out

I saw that too and MLBTR noted he had a 6.00 ERA in AAA this year. I doubt he does well vs Houston if he cannot do better than that in AAA. I wish him the best though.

He’s been hurt by the longball (which probably doesn’t bode well), but he’s had a strong k-rate (9 per 9), and I’d expect his bb-rate (4 per 9) to improve, given his history. Small sample, regardless, but I wouldn’t bet against the little guy.

I am not so much betting against him as I am betting on Houston. I rather him get his first start against the Mets. I would like his chances better vs them.
