Expected....real lineups to follow when available.

Yikes solid hitting lineup against a minor league hitting lineup with some major league talent there. This should be a fun series. Hoping we can take at least 3 or 4. Not holding my breath. If we leave this series with no more then one win someone has to be fired.

I don't quite get this move though I suppose, along with Padlo, they're sort of looking for late bloomer types. Ellis had a pretty strong season last year in AAA and has some power so it's not completely unrealistic that something could click and all of sudden we find ourselves with a serviceable major leaguer.

One possibility is that Suarez could be dealt at the deadline, thereby opening a spot for Padlo and/or Ellis to get an extended tryout at the ML level.

What tha...???
Another journeyman? JD just loves these types.
Another negative WAR guy. Great.
Keep him in the minors until he can hit.

It all makes sense now. The primary mission is to maximize the number of All Stars for the game in Seattle next summer.

TA is basically the Chris Taylor of pitchers.
