Re: Flaherty and Bader to the IL
But the two call ups are taking over Cabby and McFarland's spots. What Goold says anyway. Not that it matters.
Seems they're just burning low risk options a la Kramer Robertson. They probably want to wait as long as possible on Burleson's clock.
Capel was from the Oscar Mercado trade.

Re: Flaherty and Bader to the IL
I thought Flaherty’s shoulder felt the best it had in years. Guess not.

I know, I'm just making that distinction because it seems Connor Thomas is knocking on the door too.dmarx114 wrote: ↑June 27 22, 1:34 pmTaking their spots on the 40 man, which is allowable due to covid.Big Amoco Sign wrote: ↑June 27 22, 1:09 pmBut the two call ups are taking over Cabby and McFarland's spots.

Re: Flaherty and Bader to the IL
Flaherty has only pitched 8 innings over 3 games so I don't want to hear he would've been fine if he just took 2 more rehab starts. So he develops the same issues while pitching for Memphis than with the Cardinals. It doesn't really change anything.

Re: Flaherty and Bader to the IL
The team rolling the dice with often-injured players going into the season when plenty of talent was available to sign is ridiculous.
Flaherty
Matz
Reyes
Mikolas
Hicks
All had question marks and/or heavily documented injury history. Mikolas, thank god, is having no issues. Even Waino repeat of 2021 was a high risk. Makes no sense. Then you signed Drew VerHagen and Aaron Brooks and Zach McCallister to insult the fans? A joke.
Now what's the plan? Montas sounds beyond reach. They need to make a pre-deadline John Lackey type move like no other. No idea who is on the block. The trade chip I use is Dickerson to a lefty OF starved playoff team. Phillies might want him. Probably need an AL team to make any deal.
I honestly look at trading Liberatore if they want a front line starter. If Libby netted Montas and a AA starter in Oakland's top 30, I do it.

But, it is your decision. Like, Jack can tell you he feels fine, but every athlete's going to say that.
