Re: Matz Countdown

He goes today against Lago de Sal. I'd guess it's his last go, but there's a day off on the 22nd and another on the 29th, so there's no immediate need for a sixth starter. I'm going with Sunday, July 5th in LA.

Re: Matz Countdown

6th Starter Day would make a lot of sense, and Niese will conveniently come down with an oblique or gout or Scratchy Beard Syndrome or some such shortly thereafter.....

He and Niese are still on the same pitching schedule.
Just sayin'.

Niese did fine tonight.

Matz, however, did superfine this afternoon in Utah. Fine-plus-plus.

Fox Sports' Ken Rosenthal taking time off from his run in Orville Redenbocker Live! to tweet that Matz's promotion is about to happen and an announcement will come later today.

He has no explicit confirmation.

Re: Matz Countdown

I smell a trade. Laggy is sitting. Matz is coming. So I close my eyes and see Laggy and Niese going to the Cubs for somebody.

If they do the 6-man rotation again I'm going to have an aneurysm.

Oops, Laggy can't be traded. I just heard a commercial saying he's going to be at the Steiner store in Roosevelt field next week.

Re: Matz Countdown

Lagares is more likely to end up on the DL than he is to be traded. Elbows and armpits are tricky things.

Re: Matz Countdown

Puma says he has a reliable source telling him there's nothing hap'nin' on the trade front right now.

probably the least reliable beat guy.

I saw a tweet that Nieses might be expecting. (something in the water?)

also Lagares says the armpit thing is fine, and him hitting some again probably indicates that.

Re: Matz Countdown

Unfortunately Lagares' problem is now with the elbow which has sharply curtailed his ability to throw.

Hoping for a Chase Utley player-manager thing. Expecting anything but.

1. Not yet, he hasn't been.
2. He's scheduled to debut Sunday.
3. That is during, and not after the homestand.
4. Really, Ash, we were looking for an actual date, not a window.

OK Gotcha SI was a rumor, MLB.com is the official on transactions.
