Vivas La Championship!!!!!!1111111!!!!!!
looks like a sneaky good pick  up.  completely as advertised. Super contact, takes BBs, controls the strike zone.

Thanks. Butera praised Waldichuk after the game for giving the team 7 outs, so if there's only one gone, I am not surprised it's Granillo.

my guess is Waldichuk to the IL and Henry is either IL'd or sent to Rochester. 

Henry had 3 rough appearances in a row last week. He really only had 1 effective appearance in his last 5, and that was 2 innings of mop up against the Dodgers. Pretty clear Butera / Simon are not viewing him as a "Bullpen A" guy and are trying to avoid putting him unless multiple high leverage guys are unavailable.

Zuck says Parker is indeed in Pittsburgh. He's on the taxi squad now but may be an opener for Mikolas tomorrow.

Nats reacquire Richard Lovelady from the Mets for cash considerations. Waldichuk to the 60-day IL to make room.

We had been talking about other potential adds to the 40 man roster, like Riley Adams. Looks like we are still fishing for pitching.

Lovelady has 0 options, so I think he's bumping someone off the active roster. I'll guess Ribalta

or Parker considering he's a lefty

yes, but I think he  was  so good that would be tough.

Nice if it is  Mikolas.

Ribalta's reward for his shutout 10th inning save is to be optioned to Rochester to make room for Lovelady.

Why? If it was up to me I’d dump Mikolas weeks ago. It’s just a matter of time.

wonder if he's here in time for today's game. I think I just about called the timing of this move. I thought he'd get tomorrow's start unless they burned through the long guys earlier in the series. If he does show today,  I wonder if he'll get more innings than Mikolas.
