[Carp]

I was hoping they'd go AJSS today and bullpen tomorrow, pushing Sale to Friday vs LAD. Oh well.

That was the only move I could see happening, to allow AJSS to start tonight.... but I am surprised they pulled the DFA so quickly. This is good news. I am with Slippy, I would like to see a pen game tomorrow if AJSS can cover 6+ tonight.

Only way to send him to the minors.

If they lose him, oh well.

Yeah, the whole point was to try to get him to AAA to stash.

I wonder if it would have been a lot easier to just DFA Ian from the get go and avoid the whole Saurez experience.

I wonder if the Braves are now paying Saurez's 1.1 million and now Ian's what I guess is league min contracts.

Maybe they wanted both.
