This will be good information when we are discussing players who we feel should be sent down to the minor leagues and attempt to understand why the better player was the one sent on the bus trips.


If a player is listed here, he has a better chance at sticking to the major league roster than our top prospects.

Oh shucks, the yankees are out of options on their 4th and 5th starters.

Or is that 5th and 6th starters, I forget what they last bought.

[Trendy Bastard]

Not worried about the Cubs players that are out of options. Most should stick to the 25 man roster all season.

It'll be interesting how the Yanks handle both Gaudin and Mitre, they can't send em down so they'll have to deal with both on the roster or cut one. I think one will end up getting cut before we're up to the all star break.

Edwin Jackson would pretty much have to fail on a Dontrelle Willis level for the Dbags to send him and his new contract to Triple A.
