Craig Hansen will be in the Red Sox bullpen tomorrow night.
He was called up when Brandon Moss, who had his appendix removed Saturday night, was put on the disabled list.
Alex Cora is expected to begin a three-game rehab assignment with Pawtucket on Wednesday.
That means he has to pitch sometime tommorrow night ,,It seems as though every time they call someone up for the pen they pitch that same night........
ReplyDeleteJacoby Ellsbury has 25 hits and 25 runs scored......
David Aardsma is the only reliever besides Jeemer and Bot ....to average less than a hit to innings pitched......
But Tito still doesn't trust him...That may change soon..At least give the Kid a shot in Delcarmen's role....
so i went on a US shopping trip saturday/sunday....i was at a public access computer when i decided to check JoS.
ReplyDeleteapparently the safe-browsing doohickey or whatever detected mature content on this site :P
something to do with Fat Billy and McCready and the word "sex"
i had a good laugh...
9Casey: I'm with you. Aardsma deserves a shot until DelCarmen finds last season's consistency. And I'm betting Hansen sticks this time.
ReplyDeleteSo if Cora is on a three-day assignment, that probably gives a pretty specific timeframe on when they'll have to drop a bullpen pitcher for Cora (they're short on bench players for a few days, it looks like). Timlin? Lopez? Probably Timlin.
ReplyDeleteI'm guessing we'll see a couple of "your chance to stay in the bullpen" auditions this series.
No, devine, I think they've made it clear that Lowrie is going down when Cora returns. Not that it wouldn't make more sense to drop Timlin, or even Cora. What more does Lowry have to prove? It's pretty obvious that he's a quality reserve, as well as SS in training. But the Sox want him playing every day.

I need to see some more out him to believe he is actually the future.......one thing that amazed me about him..he is slow
