Someone’s getting called up on the bullpen shuttle tomorrow especially with Houser going 6 today as the 6th starter.

I agree, but who?  Based on the optionable guys.  I am making a strong assumption that Pannone sticks just because of the ability to go starters innings, if called upon.

I missed the game and the thread due to some more serious issues with my mother-in-law. but I had to chuckle  when I saw the ESPN headline about Devin Williams getting out of a bases-loaded jam.  We won, though! 

Perspective.

Pannone, Bush, and Wilson didn't pitch today and Peguero only threw 3 pitches.  Peralta just needs to go five and then each can take one inning. 

They have a six-man rotation now so they can shorten to five and put another guy in the pen.

If Rea didn't have a good start last game, I would say him. 

Now, that I look at the roster, I don't think there's a feasible candidate to go down to AAA. DFA of Bush would be the move, and I don't know if they're ready to pull the plug on him. 

Devin, Hoby, and Elvis are definitely down. Payamps could probably go if you needed him to close a tight game. Probably looking at 6 of Freddy, 2 of Bryse Wilson, and then 1 of Payamps. And if Freddy isn't able to go 6, then we're probably trailing by a good amount, and it's Pannone/Bush time.

Who are they optioning? Pannone is already up. Only other relievers with options are Milner, Peguero, and Williams and none of those 3 are getting optioned.

I don't think they're going to throw Pannone if they're leading. Ideally, you hope Freddy can go 6 and then go Wilson for 2, and then Payamps if needed to close. 

Peguero only threw 3 pitches, but he's probably down after pitching Saturday, Sunday, Monday, Wednesday, and today.

DFA of Bush would have to be the move. 

But now that I think of it, I think they'll pray for rain and try to get by with multiple innings of Wilson and then Payamps in high leverage and Pannone there for mop-up duty.

Time for Freddy to step up.  

You never know. He hasn't been very consistent. A couple of quality starts in June, but a couple of bad ones too.

Bush is fresh, so doesn't really make sense to DFA him just to bring up another RP who they don't want pitching high leverage.

With Turang back up, will we see some off days for Willy?

Willy needs a couple of days off for sure.
