I’ve never heard of Scherff either.

Right Ask Bill Veeck (rhymes with wreck). Still, its awesome beyond words.I'll go ahead and take the opposite position on that. I don't need a circus show with my mediocre middle reliever. Focus on throwing strikes.
Wonder if that's a phantom IL for Hernandez ...
Do we have a reason to think this? A history with Cora or Bloom?Wonder if that's a phantom IL for Hernandez ...
Why would they do that when he has options?Wonder if that's a phantom IL for Hernandez ...
I'm far from sure about this, but if he has been on the MLB team all season, I think he wouldn't burn an option in 2021 if he never gets sent down, so that helps in future seasons.Why would they do that when he has options?
He has to be sent down for at least 20 days, I believe, before an option is burned. If it's a phantom IL trip, presumably that would only be for the minimum 10 days before he's re-activated. In which case, being optioned would accomplish the same thing without burning the option year.I'm far from sure about this, but if he has been on the MLB team all season, I think he wouldn't burn an option in 2021 if he never gets sent down, so that helps in future seasons.
A lot better than Sweet Caroline that's for sure. This is the entertainment business after all.Right Ask Bill Veeck (rhymes with wreck). Still, its awesome beyond words.
Ah - lost track that he still had options, but of course ...Why would they do that when he has options?
