Hendricks is currently in line to start Thursday, so them throwing a TBD up there says something.  I wonder if the plan is a bullpen game (led by Brown/Wesneski) unless the bullpen gets shredded Tuesday/Wednesday?  Or if you wanted to get wild you could call up Horton....

Do you think they’d call up Horton? He hasn’t looked that sharp in his 3 AAA starts. I bet he could easily outperform Hendricks though

Certainly not for good, but I could see a spot start as a bridge to Hendricks exiting the rotation and Wicks re-entering.  Especially if he only has to go like 9-15 batters before handing off to Brown or Wesneski.

Gray's next start is this weekend vs. the Cubs
