Interesting. 11 man pitching staff and carrying both Chavez and Gentry. Thought we might have another lefty BP guy, maybe Kirkman.

Kirkman and Hamburger were sent down to AZ Instructional League to get steady work over the next week.

I presume Kirkman is the backup in case one of the LH RP goes down or fails to perform in the ALDS with Hamburger the backup for Feldman.

Makes sense. I just figured we would always take 12 pitchers. Times are a' changin!

Being able to pinch run gentry or chavez could be huge.

 

[Stinky Britches]

Nice to see German getting some love.

He could make a surprise contribution at any time.

agree 100%. It is just that it was always assumed that Texas would need 12 pitchers.
