Around SBN: The Worst Season of Francisco Rodriguez's Career Bar-right-arrows



Wes Littleton back up

Wes Littleton has been called up, and Scott Feldman optioned back down.

Evan Grant says Littleton is likely only up until Eddie Guardado comes off the d.l. this weekend.

It does not say where Feldman is going

but with Ponson getting some relief action today, I have to think Feldman will be taking his rotation spot in Oklahoma.

Jim Byers,

the OKC radio guy, said Ponson purposely skipped a side session yesterday so he would be available in the pen today. The thought being to substitute his side with the inning he pitched today. So, Byers seemed to think he would start Wednesday anyway for the Redhawks. We'll see.

Ponson

From what I have gathered the OKC bullpen has been decimated so Ponson skipped a side session and pitched in relief. They just lost Littleton, Tejeda isn't in playing shape right now, Loe and Francisco were used yesterday.

German...

should be sent back down this weekend before Wes.

If you don't really want to bring in a bullpen guy in a close game because of his control then he's a liability.

Although I don't think German has any options.

But you're right, German's unreliability makes him a detriment. Texas considered Kaz Fukumori a detriment, and sent him down because he was unreliable, so why should it be any different with German? Littleton has a track record of being a good releiver - he should have been put in the bullpen instead of German this spring.

I can't stand another season of watching that...nice guy, but no control. I think it's time for you all to experience it first hand! :-) LOL

Confirmed

Bev is the same kind of fan I am. Like good AB's, throwing strikes, catching the damn ball, throwing well. And the players get points for being plus people. That said, be ready to see Franklyn before long :))
