HoRam to DL, Huber up

DMZ · May 25, 2007 at 3:07 pm · Filed Under Mariners 

PI’s reporting that Horacio Ramirez is on the DL, while Jon Huber’s been recalled from AAA. Hickey speculates that Weaver’s the obvious move to come off the DL and take Ramirez’s next start.

HoRam’s made-up suspect totally legitimate injury is “left shoulder tendinitis” I understand. Weaver is on the DL with right shoulder tendinitis. Both of them suck.

Jon Huber’s thrown 24 2/3rds innings in Tacoma, allowing 26 H, 2 HR, 5 BB, and 19 K.

    Thomsen, you kinda beat me to it. Does it worry anyone at all that 2/3 of our offseason pitching acquisitions now are on the DL? Granted, they can do less damage to the team there but maybe it shows we’ve learned nothing about evaluating players?

    Shoulda put this question on this thread to begin with… oh well.

    How often do other ball clubs make up DL excuses to give their players some “straighten up” time?

    “#40: Julio Mateo has spot-sucked before.”

    Fixed

    Didn’t they say during tonight’s game that Grover said that Weaver will not be making his next start? Prolly gonna have a AAA debut, eh?

    Oil Can Boyd is attempting a comeback. I kid you not. I would plug Oil Can into the rotation over HoRam just for the comedic value. Maybe we can convince Mark Fidrych to leave the comforts of retirement, as well.

    Hey, Nolan Ryan has said he’s available, though it might take a “Clemens-type” contract to get him. Still, odds are that’s a better performance/$ than the M’s have gotten out of Weaver. Plus he’d be better in a fight (where have you gone, Robin Ventura, forever known as Nolan Ryan’s bitch?) (Does anyone else find this piece of signed memorabilia hilarious on several levels?)

    I believe Robin, when not spending time with his lovely wife and children, does charity stuff.

    ah, I see he did the ‘former player/guest coach’ thing with the ChiSox

    You might think Ho sucks but what does that say about the rest of the staff that he leads the team in wins?
