News: The Tampa Tribune reports that Rays SP Carlos E. Hernandez is the likely favorite to get the rotation spot vacated by Scott Kazmir's trip to the 15-day DL with a quad problem.

Analysis: Hernandez is 3-2 with a 4.29 ERA, 14 walks and 32 strikeouts in eight Triple-A starts this season. Once a former prospect with the Astros, Hernandez has had a couple of shoulder surgeries and had minimal Fantasy value before this move. There is no guarantee how many starts he'll get in this trip up to Tampa, but he will pitch for a pretty decent team and is worth a flier in AL-only leagues.

ESPN is dead set on this Price thing but they seem to be the only ones

 

[JZilla]

CBS now reporting the same thing but still no source

 

[Homer @ RJ]

It will be Price. He's skipping his start tomorrow.

The Hernandez thing is based off of the fact that Monday is his spot in the Durham rotation.

ESPN is reporting that Price was called up.

Price joins Rays

ESPN is reporting that David Price has been called up to join the Rays rotation. He will start on Monday in Scott Kazmir's place. Kazmir is on the 15-day DL with strained quad.

Our View: Price is universally owned, even though he has been stuck at Triple-A all season long. There is as much hype around him as any prospect in the game, and we'll enjoy watching what he can do this season. He'll face the Indians on Monday, and we like his odds.

His era and record were mediocre in AAA (experimenting)...but I believe he threw 6 hitless innings his last time out?

 

[JZilla]

It's on, prclvrs

 

[gump]

Bump...as he strikes out the side in his first inning.

 

[Homer @ RJ]

Too many pitches. Don't think he'll get through 5.

He won't...seems a little nervous...but dam he's overpowering these guys. Only been two innings, but no one has come close to hitting the ball solid...and Laporta just looked like a little leaguer. Consistently hitting 98 with the fastball and 89 with the slider.

Luckily Cleveland's been so bad he'll still be lined up for the W.

<_<He needs to come out in the 4th throwing change-ups for strikes - trust the D to make some outs. Otherwise, he will be done after 4 (or 3+).Maybe he really is better suited to be a closer . . .

I never quite understood why someone would pay so much for a ticket to a pro game, and leave early. No matter what the score is.

my cousin got the tickets for free and we had our 4 kids with us. 9pm + school night + fidgety kids + free tix + 10-2 deficit + no sign of offense = time to go.

 

[gump]

Not sure what to think of the pitch count...like was said, he looked nervous/figgety/uncomfortable.Is this his norm, or was it an effect of his being amped up?:

Consistently hitting 98 with the fastball and 89 with the slider.

I stand corrected.

Then I feel better about benching him, maybe they'll skip his turn.I've gotten to the point in which I'll only start the best pitchers in Yankee Stadium in my 12 team leagues.
