That's exactly what I thought.

Valdes up, Clint Everts DFA'd

According to Adam Rubin on the Twitter.

I don't recall him doing much of anything.

Oh well.

Yeah but he was one of the possible high upside guys we took a flyer on

now we’re releasing him for a 32 year old without even giving him a chance to do anything?

i wanted to see everts get a shot as much as anybody

but i feel this is just a case of the #‘s game, not bad management. they’ve been wanting/needing a second lefty for a while now and in the best interest of feliciano’s arm, i can’t blame them for taking valdes over everts.

But if they hadn't added Meija, Tejada, F-cats and Jacobs (the last two especially)

they wouldn’t have had to dfa figgy or everts.

And now what bullpen/starting depth do we have left in AAA

if someone goes down?

Pat Misch?

Sunny days ahead? Probably not.

by Brian. on Apr 11, 2010 4:37 PM EDT up reply actions  

I’m assuming the plan is to have Nieve or Tak take a start when someone goes down.

by Blame-everyone-else on Apr 11, 2010 7:11 PM EDT via mobile up reply actions  

but if they're both in the bullpen

1 inning a game regularly neither will be stretched out. And if one of them does move into the rotation who takes their spot in the bullpen?

by Gina on Apr 11, 2010 7:14 PM EDT up reply actions  

Having both been starters

One would think they can get stretched out rather quickly, say once around the rotation.

by Blame-everyone-else on Apr 11, 2010 9:32 PM EDT via mobile up reply actions  

Gee pitched well today

He was probably next in line last year before he got injured, so he may be the next to get a shot. Him or Stoner I’d imagine. By the way, Gee pitched 6, gave up 2 hits, no walks and 4 Ks.

by Evan_S on Apr 11, 2010 8:23 PM EDT up reply actions  

Everts

I assumed he’d just be going to AAA, no?

2009 Did Not Happen

by cjmulrain on Apr 12, 2010 8:56 AM EDT up reply actions  

I'm pretty sure he was already in AAA

to add Valdes to the 40 we had to dfa Everts so now he has to go through waivers.

At 5:30 PM EDT today Starting today at 5:00 PM EDT, witness one of the greatest renderings of visual sound effects ever!

UPDATE 1: My browser has crashed several times in the process from all the rants (FUUUUUUUUUUUU!!!!) - as a result, there will instead be 4 or 5 separate installments of fxcarden's Nightly Rants! from 2011, with a similar pattern for the 2012 rants. Take my word for it, when I say that it's for the best. Here's the revised schedule:

Volume 1: 2011
No. 1: Today at 5:00 PM EDT
No. 2: Tomorrow
No. 3: Thursday
No. 4 and No. 5 (?) TBD

UPDATE 2: Vol. I, No. 1 (July, 2011) is now up!

2013 ALL-STAR GAME(TM) LOGO CONTEST

Major League Baseball has formally announced that Citi Field will be the site of the 2013 All-Star Game. (see video) In light of this, I have decided to launch an All-Star Game logo contest. To help get you started, I provided all of you with a sample All-Star Game logo. (click here to embiggen) If you wish to participate, please enter your submission with an image below, in the comments section. The contest ends on May 31st. I will choose a select number of finalists, and the community will vote on which of those logos is the best one.

Can you create a better logo than the sample logo provided? Then, give it a shot. Good luck to all participants!
Jon Rauch is awesome. Dan Tanna is, obviously, a fan of Greg Pomes.
