He is only 25 AB's from 500 AAA AB's which is what Theo likes.

Bring him.

We'll see if this makes a difference, but Baez earned 55 days of service time last year meaning he'd get credit for a year of service time with 117 days on the major league roster this year.  By my count, there are 133 days of possible service time this season after today.  That would put the line to avoid his getting a year of credit at about June 10.

Great point Kid. That looks to be a reasonable estimate. If that's the case, then we could see Baez getting the call during the Reds home series that starts June 11.

He's looking pretty good right now. Isn't his SO rate around (or possibly below, now) 25%?

[rok]

By my calculations it is exactly 25%.

Vogelbach was taken out of today's game for a PR in the 2nd inning after a double. Was he hurt? Otherwise that's curious...

Scratch that. Hopefully nothing serious.

Unfotunately it's a hamstring. Which, can be nothing, or could be lingering. Sucks.

I think Edwards, even though I love his stuff, is a bit high at 2. Mostly though, gotta love this list. Even with the guys graduating to the majors, still tons of talent.

Don't look now, but Baez is 0 for his last 11 with 4 strikeouts.and 0 walks.

Don't think it was mentioned, but Vogelbach officially on the DL.
