Re: Howard

Good to see him with a great start. But I'll want to see it sustained before I consider him as a candidate to come back up.

Actually 5 out of his last 6 starts have been pretty good. I know he pitched 5 innings in 5 of those but that was a management decision.

Fake News
Let's just say, what he has done at AAA is far greater than anything I expected. Now can he do anything similar in the big leagues? If he can, is his mental state so fragile that the least bit of struggle will cause him to fall apart? Who knows, but I will give him credit for far outperforming what I thought he was capable of.

I hope they take Lee or Johnson.
I think Johnson would be best, but there are some who believe Druw Jones and Jackson Holliday are in the "can't miss" category.

Holliday and Parada have grown on me over the last few weeks.

If he continues to perform like this, the past will be quickly forgotten. Perez has proven it can happen,

not sure i'm ready to give Howard the benefit of the doubt. i would have to see it over a longer period of time to not doubt his ability

so let him pitch the rest of the year in the minors and if he's solid for the whole time then let's see him against MLB level talent. 10 games and a 4.01 ERA isn't enough

I would say yes if we have better options and if he has another start or two down there that would be fine but if he comes up to test things I a good too

I hate the bullpen games

I’m Leary of Prada. From what I’m seeing, he’s not very good defensively.
