Not going, but will be watching.

Who cares even if that's the case as he will still have to accrue 172 days on the major league roster for one year of service time.

His future with Houston is already very much in doubt so I don't really see how the service time clock is that much of an issue.

I mean, we all know he's going to leave the organization as minor league free agent right?

[Scraps 13600]

Anyone worried about Whitleys service time needs to lay off the crack

[Wulaw Horn 19258]

Y’all are missing the point… there is no reason to do it now when you can put Brantley or Urquidy there. Hell- Crane will have to pay Whitley 200k to be on the DL. Why would he do that if he doesn’t have to?   It makes no sense. It’s not going to be Whitley.

You guys are all going to look back at this thread and realize that the answer to all of our problems, Joel Kuhnel, was staring us in the face all along.

Honestly, the answer to all of our problems is for our superstars to start playing better.

last 45 days our record stands with anyone, and we played very meh at times 

[Mitch Hedberg 2097]

Big trade. New pitcher. Grab your ass

[David Dennison 19128]

Other than Kershaw, Chris Taylor, and Austin Barnes, are there any other Dodgers from 2017 still on the roster?

For cash 

[Mitch Hedberg 2097]

7.27 ERA at AAA. 
That should fix what ails us. Why are we cluttering our roster with dregs and castoffs? 

[Seasick Sailor 3747]

 

[tx 3 putt 77951]

Brantley and Urquidy to the 60 day 

[Wulaw Horn 19258]

I literally told y’all what the moves would be and why and yet y’all argued with me and said I was  wrong/one thinking things. 
this was a no brainer. To not do it this way would be front office malpractice. 
Whitley still may well get transferred to the 60 day DL but it was never going to be before Urquidy and Brantley came back. 

[Scraps 13600]

I literally told yall this yesterday

Buncha Colin Cowherds in here all the sudden.

Finally, we do the obvious right thing and are activating someone named after a disease that kills plants.

He’s gonna fucking catch maldonado every mother fucking day for the rest of the fucking year isn’t he?  
Dubon 2nd, Julks 6th and Chas 8th?  Dusty is not a serious human being. 

[runthebone 8139]

If these fuckers hit Altuve, we better fucking start a brawl and take out their three best players.

I'm shocked Yainer is in the lineup.  Maybe Dana had a come to jesus meeting before these moves?

I mean, even Dusty has to see without Yordan here it’s criminally asinine not to play Diaz somewhere every day. Rubber meets the road when Yordan comes back.

JP France has been fine.

[WBT 20757]

So are we really going to let this guy get to 9 no-hit innings to start his career?

Since his first start, #2 in innings and #3 in K’s 

if this was Whitley, some her would be cross dressing in hopes of boning him

Dubon and Abreu have the same number of home runs.

[ChickenSandwich 9856]

Trade Abreu and eat 90% of his salary. GTFO
