Gordon called up……Stallings optioned

[markedman5]

Tough break for Stallings but after pitching 3 innings yesterday they needed obviously needed a fresh arm

Gordon is recalled but I don't remember how him or how he pitched.

He has not pitched for the brewers……it’s just a term they use. He has pitched briefly in the majors without success.

The Brewers basically bought him from the Astros by taking on Lance McCullers for a short time and paying some of his salary.

Not a fan of optioning Stallings as he was a guy they could rely on to finish up games and be effective during low leverage outings. Now he can't come back up the rest of the season unless there is an injury.

Shouldn’t be a problem.

The term recalled is used because the baseline for a 40 man roster guy is to be with the MLB club. If they’re not, they have to be optioned for the minors - so if they’re promoted, they’re technically recalled regardless of if they’ve actually been on the MLB roster or not.
