UPDATED: LaRoche headed to 15 Day DL
« on: May 23, 2011, 04:36:47 pm »
Good to hear. Hopefully with some rest (surgery?) he can return the player we expected him to be. Ankiel is obviously going to be called up, but who else? Maybe Marerro/Moore?

LaRoche to the DL, Ankiel called up, no other roster changes.

My guess.

Truly hope you're wrong.

Say hello to one of your big 3 "Like a big time FA signing" the Nats brass will beat into the ground this coming offseason.

Strasburg
Zimmerman
LaRoche

"It's like we added 3 big time FA's to the team. Therefore, we didn't think we needed to actually sign a player this offseason"

Book it.

Worked for Marquis this year, up until the day we extend his contract.

When LaOuch goes to the DL - he'll be done for the year. That labrum won't heal itself.

Yeah, I've been afraid of this for awhile. They would probably even throw Harper in the mix even though he probably wouldn't have played a game by then. Just sign Pujols :P and a pitcher!!!

1. Did they market Marquis like that this spring?
2. Zimmerman will already have been back for 3 months.

I still think we get one of C.J. Wilson/E. Jackson and trade for a blocked CF prospect.

They'll still say that having Zimmerman back for a FULL year is like adding another FA.

Since we knew he was injured, I don't feel bad about applauding the news.  I am applauding doing the right thing for the roster (DL / activation), not him being hurt. Get right, get back, and play like you can when right.

Of course not. They play with 24 for 4 or 5 days till Ankiel is ready.

True, but he's probably a week away from returning.

Just call up a minor leaguer to take Stairs spot and stuff. Damn!
