The guys that have been mentioned could be put on the 40-man when they are called up. All you are doing by putting guys on the roster now is using up an option year.
It's rare to only have 35 guys on it, but there's no requirement that there be more than that. Keeping it at 35 will give us flexibility to use up the vacant spots as needed (<b>or if any trades are made</b>).<!--QuoteEnd--><!--QuoteEEnd-->
Which there will be if Miles, Theriot, or Fontenot got hurt, or they need a backup 3b. I don't think they'd call somebody like Blanco over making a deal.
