Author Topic: Detwiler Out 10 weeks (as of 2/18/2010) (Read 3397 times)

we've always needed some of the others to step up. Detwiler was a part of "some of the others"

wtf are you yapping about.

this is far from a "disaster".

It's not a disaster, but he was one of the guys who could slot in at four. All it means is that one less guy is in the competition

all it means is stache-o-bally is one step closer to the rotation.

Yeah -- the back end of this rotation still makes me a bit queasy...

I agree with that! Balester has learned from the good things and the difficult things from his past few years in the Bigs! He is much stronger this time around and is pitching like a machine. I am positive his goal is to get a full year under his belt in the Bigs!
It is an unfortunate thing that has happened to Detwiler. I truely think he was coming into his own this year , just like Balester is. Wang, Strasburg, Detwiler could all emerge on the scene about the same time frame in June- July.

News: Ross Detwiler (hip flexor) is expected to start a minor league rehab assignment at some point in mid-May, according to MLB writer William Ladson's twitter page.

Thanks PC. I guess it really was a June return to the MLB after all. Eh, let's hope Martin/Stammen and Livan can hold down the fort.

He cannot start his rehab assignment until May 4th as he is not eligible to return to the Nationals until June 4th (the maximum amount of days a pitcher can rehab in the minors is 30 days).

I wondered about the 60 day DL stint when it happened. they were trying to figure out a way to manage the 40 man roster slots, and had to put of Taveras, Livo, a reliever I think (walker?), and maybe some other moves. It seemed up to that point that all the Detwiler predictions had him possibly coming back by early May, so it seemed that they were icing him on the 60 day for longer than they had to.
