Story is still available.

hasn't Story said he isn't interested in playing anywhere but SS

what other players?

Well you disagreed with what I suggested.
I just think without pitching we are not set to contend so we could figure something in house vs saying this is a IKF trade killer

no not disagreeing just wondering if i've missed someone. IKF seems to be the logical choose but there may be someone that i've missed. and if we actively sign some pitching, we might want to keep Isiah. i', just trying to look at all possibilities

It may even allow us to get more for him as other teams won't see him as superfluous or as expendable.

i guess as long as no one thinks we're tanking

It seems that some of the least severe labral injuries requires 6 to 8 weeks being out, with the bulk of those cases requiring 8 weeks. That is 4 weeks rest and 4 weeks strengthening it back up. Jung is about a week into this, so the earliest he could start baseball ST-type activities would be about 7 weeks from now or April 8. Maybe he could go to AAA in early May. That is best case scenario. Or, he could miss the rest of the year if he needs surgery.

Seems like the next MRI with dye will be the tell tale how severe the injury we are looking at
Then contingencies can be made

 

[Kelleyman]

General point that batters need protection.
Not totally sold on Adolis but he had no protection.

We will have a better offense next year With Seager and Marcus S in the lineup. Jung should be able to help too
Maybe one more hitter to be added at some point even if next year

so, the best-case scenario we could bring him up around the adjusted trade deadline and trade IKF then

From Jeff Wilson:

The minor-league seasons are still scheduled to begin on time. The MLB lockout does not affect minor-league players who are not on a 40-man roster, as they are not governed by the collective bargaining agreement.

Most minor-leaguers aren’t on their organization’s 40-man.

They need spring training, too, and the Texas Rangers have scheduled March 5 as report day to Arizona for minor-league camp. Players will have a month to get ready for the season.

Triple A Round Rock opens play April 5, and Double A Frisco, High A Hickory and Low A Down East begin April 8.

Pitchers, though, need more time than that, and a large group of them has already gathered at what has been a busy Surprise Recreation Campus.

Thanks. Yeah, White is probably going to be very special.

Needs to reign in those emotions and not break his hand anymore lol
