is schlitter filling some new ground ball specialist role or something? why not have parker here instead.

 

or can we just get rid of james russell already? don't care if we replace him with a righty or lefty tbh because he sucks.

 

I mentioned it elsewhere, Parker has to clear assignment waivers to be sent back down once we call him up. I don't expect to see him until September.
