Wangmus in July?

Something about that just doesn't sound right

Hope he pitches better in DC than he did in Syracuse

But calling him up makes sense – they have to see what they have/whether they have anything in him. Hopefully he’s better than Gorzelanny has been. I think I’d move Gorzo to the bullpen for a bit, but that’s just me.

Tough day for him today.

He gave up 5 runs in 5 Innings today. It is 2 days before the Non-wavier trade deadline. There could be a trade that opens a place on the 25 Man-roster.

They also have to call him up or release him

I think they have 30 days from his first rehab start to recall or DFA. Someone will have to go down/on the DL to open a spot on the 25-man roster. Any word on who this will be?

Sweet I get to see Wang's debut live

Hopefully it isn’t a total debacle.

So Gorzelanny moves out of the rotation? Or someone else?

If Wang stays in the 5-man rotation, I’d be at his second start. Day game on 8/3. I’ll tweet a report on the media frenzy.

Lets hope we don't see Oliver Perez any time soon.

He pitched Friday night in Richmond and was turrible. Was in the 60s and 70s on the gun all night.

Someone has to pitch at AA

by jeff550 on Jul 25, 2011 11:41 AM EDT up reply actions  

And to remind the Mets every day that they are paying $12M for him to pitch badly for us at AA.

That's good enough reason for me

If the Mets are paying, then keep him (in the minors).

Isn't he impeding some other more deserving player's progress?

Is the Nats’ organization that depleted, still?

Judging from recent events

The Nationals’ view of how quickly a prospect should be advanced is not universally shared in the community :-)

by d_c_guy on Jul 25, 2011 3:05 PM EDT up reply actions  

Not yet

Rosenbaum in not ready to move up from A+ yet, and when he is I think Perez will find himself on the DL. Davis would be the only argument, but they want him to work with Menhart

by jeff550 on Jul 25, 2011 3:09 PM EDT up reply actions  

I doubt it

I’d figure him as organizational filler, rounding out Harrisburg’s roster.

Seems like a pointless waste of space to me,

but then again I’ve never cared much for OD as a concept.
