      Recently Aquired Pitcher on the DL nothing new for us

      Poveda was actually a nice pitcher last year-just not sure about the TJ Sugery

        honestly TJ is so common nowadays I just prefer a pitcher to get it out of their system early. Actually didn't realize Poveda was so young, it's not a terrible return.

          I'm seriously shocked we got even one of the prospects, let alone both.

            Ceda, Marinez, Sanabia, Jennings, RVH, and Reed as young arms competing for bullpen spots next year. If even two of those guys make it behind Leo, Hensley, and Sanches and what's hopefully a legitimate veteran arm added in the offseason, the bullpen doesn't look like it's in bad shape for next year.

              Ya 9/27/87 is his bday and had a 11-5 4.14 ERA last year in AA. I just don't like getting guys who are injured but we do a good job with those types of guys. See JJ

                  we do have a pretty good track record but even without that, TJ is so routine that recovery isn't even a "what if" anymore.

                    Hopefully the Rangers don't see that error Cantu just made, and take back the offer.

                      Meh, Poveda's ERA isn't bad but his strikeout numbers aren't promising. 78 K's in 130 innings. He doesn't miss enough bats at AA.

                      Now, if he wasn't missing bats because he was injured, that's different. And that may be the case, because his strikeout numbers in A ball were pretty good.

                        As long as he doesnt need multiple TJs like Spooneybarger.

                          Though Cantu is still on field, he is being traded to #Rangers, #Marlins paying $600,000 of $2.1M left on his contract
                          surprising, guess that's why we didn't get a better return

                            When did he have Tommy John? Is he close to returning or is he going to be out the rest of the year?

                              The return isnt so bad considering its Jorge Cantu. Cantu is awesome in MLB 2K9 btw.
