KCya activated today. Probably Machi going out.

 

[calsnowskier]

Also talk of Frenchy getting the call today. Prob is, I don't see room on the 40. Will the org DFA Adrianza?

More likely Pill.

 

[calsnowskier]

More likely Pill.

I would hope they would try to trade him first. If Gillespie is going to be claimed (Cubs, BTW), Pill will be claimed FAST.

Maybe 60 Chez?

 

[MarcoPolo]

Just FYI. When a player is DFA'd, it doesn't mean the player is gone. He is removed from the team's 40-man (and active) roster immediately, BUT the team has 10 days to try and work out a deal with another team. Also, any team can put in a waiver request (the player has to pass thru non-revokable waivers). If no deal is made and no claim is made, then :
(1) If the player has never been outrighted before And has less than 3 years service time, the team can outright him to the minors and he must go.
(2) If the player HAS already been outrighted he may choose to become a FA and leave the team immediately OR accept the assignment and become a free agent at the end of the season if he’s not back on the 40-man roster.
(3) If the player has at least 3 years service time he can refuse assignment and choose to become a FA immediately

Pill was outrighted in 2010.

Noonan and Machi down

Heston DFA'd, Casilla activated and Francouer purchased from Fresno

Wow.

That is shocking. They must have lost all faith in him. Too bad.

I'm shocked. But when I see things like this, I always think "they know something that I don't about this guy".

Another thought : any team can put in a waiver claim, and I bet several will (every cheap team will - HOU and MIA definitely). Only one team (the one with the worst record) can get the claim. BUT the Giants have 10 days to work out a trade with ANY team. It's drastic, and Heston is probably gone, but this is a way to judge interest and work a trade.

He has to clear all NL teams before Houston would have a shot. He will be claimed by Miami almost certainly. Lets just hope someone is willing to trade for him.

That was my point - I guess I should have been more obvious. With the two crappiest, cheapest teams in each league very likely to put in claims, others teams have to think "if I want him, I better offer something decent or I'll never get him".

 

[calsnowskier]

JA placed on the 15
Machi called up.

 

[calsnowskier]

Today only - The 25-man is increased to the 26-man and Surkamp is called up.

I am still not sure why the league expanded our roster. Anyone know the story behind this?

For all double headers they let you have a 26th man. Since it is two games in one day it gives each team a little more depth.

Has this always been the rule? I don't EVER remember hearing this rule before this situation.

Nah, it's pretty new - I think it started last year.

New CBA?

Gotcha. Thanks.

 

[Stokes1931]

New CBA?

Gotcha. Thanks.

I couldn't find it in the new CBA. Must have had a petition with Bud's office.

Petit added to 40 and 25
Kontos sent to Fresno
Strickland DFA'd

The kid in San Jose with the 0.86 ERA and the WHIP of .714?

Yeah, makes sense to keep Kontos around with his run an inning streak, and DFA the kid.
