    He doesn't go on tiny sample sizes.

    LOL. Good one.

    Maybe JF should have tried Marrero at clean-up five times...small sample size!

    Marrero is a career black hole.

    Yes, that's why I'm surprised JF never used DM in the 4 slot!

    Pedey & Barnes activated. Swihart, Travis, Elias & Maddox called up. So far, Brentz has not been added to the 40 man.

    Brentz will be up Sept 5th when the PawSox season ends. Shows you what they think of him though...

    Who gets axed off the 40 man?

    Owens?

    Martin?

    Also, if Elias is pitching, it's time to turn off the game. That's the white flag.

    Won't be Owens; they are sending him to the Arizona Fall League. They aren't doing that with the intent of releasing him, at least as of now. Might be his last shot, though. If he shows nothing in the AFL, he's be gone by spring.

    Johnson is going to the AFL as well, along with Chavis.

    My guess would be Martin.

    Lin and Marrero will be up Tuesday, as will Smith.
    The Yankees could go 0-162 and it wouldn't be enough

    heres what is said about the rules for call up.

    What does Sept. 1 mean for postseason rosters?
    If a player is to be eligible for a team's postseason roster, he must be in its organization as of 11:59 p.m. ET on Aug. 31. Specifically, players must be on the 40-man roster, the 60-day disabled list or the bereavement/family medical emergency list at that time.

    However, if a club wants to add a player who was not on the 40-man roster but was in the organization, it can petition the Commissioner's Office if that player is replacing someone who has been on the 60-day DL for at least 60 days.

    I thought Owens would be gone by Rule 5 day anyways!

    Not me. I want the Yankees out. NOW!

    He could have put a weak hitting pitcher in the clean up spot all season and only cost the team about 15 (or was it 18?) runs.
