Damn, that was so quick. See ya partner, I guess?
Not shocked. Regardless of his performance last night, with Cortes slotted to start Wednesday and King coming back probably this weekend the rotation is a bit crowded. Hopefully they can work with Sears down in El Paso and get him trending the right way.
Hope he can work on things and come back better than ever.
Me thinks that the As trade was a bit impulsive. Who knows. I woulda settled on 3 pitchers for 1 Mason Miller. But I think LDV was thrown in as an “offer they couldn’t refuse.”
Dude escaped Sacramento in July just to get sent to El Paso in August. Ouch.
I like the move quite frankly. Now we just need a phantom IL stint for Yuki when King is activated.
At least he’s used to pitching in a minor league park.

Niebla saw up close what needs to be adjusted and he’s going to work on that and come back. Book it
After last night … not surprising
Makes sense. Sears has options and King should be back for that spot in the rotation this weekend.
Good, in your mojo going with the pitching staff before your next start
Poor JP went from pitching in a AAA Ballpark to single game at a major league ball park and back to a AAA ballpark.
They should have gave him a couple of games
That didn’t take long lol
trevor rodgers treatment
In cases like this one, who decides who is sent down? Shildt/Niebla? Preller?
Six man rotation given King and Cortes are coming back from long absences. Plus, there are “only” 3 mop up guys in the bullpen – wandy, Matsui, Morgan. Addition of Reynolds makes a lot of sense.
More transactions will be happening after the Arizona series.
