If Ramirez is hurt...who do the Cubs call up?

[CuseCubFan69]

I hope he didn't hurt his leg bad enough to go on the DL but who gets the call if Cedeno is already up?

[Cubs1]

he'll be out maybe a few days with a strained left quad

You put that with the lingering groin injury and I don't know how quick he will be back.

[Cubzfan64]

Anyone want to place bets that we see Jose Macias at 3B?

[Cubzfan64]

I'd sure love to see Aramis Ramirez put on a really good stretching and flexibility training program this offseason - in fact, to tell you the truth, I'd rather see many of our guys work on stretching and flexibility rather than pumping iron.

That would take extra effort and since the Cubs fired the one trainer that made them work too hard, I doubt it'll happen.

Can Ryno be some sort of training instructor? He doesn't have the degree, but he does have the work ethic and did the regimen throughout his playing career.

From what I've read Ryno doesn't seem to want to be a coach with a team the whole year and that is what it would take. I'd like to see him there instead of Sonny Jackson or whoever is the inf coach for the Cubs.

Fontenot?

Fontenot?

 

I'd like to see that but I wouldn't be surprised if the Cubs called up Kelton instead....for the righty bat.

2B Walker

SS Neifi

3B Cedeno

 

 

Cedeno certainly has the arm for 3rd. It may be the only way he can get playing time under Dusty.

NOT

GONNA

HAPPEN

 

Dusty would never play Cedeno at 3rd over Macias.

[RyCubsFan]

Even if Ramirez misses only a few days and he's not put on the disabled list, the Cubs should still call someone up. Our bench is already short by having 12 pitchers on staff. We can't afford to be minus another bat. So even if Ramirez is not DL'd, the Cubs should send down Wellemeyer and bring up a bat.

 

My choice would probably be Fontenot.

They're going to call up Fontenot so he can sit next to Cedeno on the bench and they can watch Perez and Macias play every freakin' day.

[goonys evil twin]

call up bartosh, need more pitchers

[Backtobanks]

Just what we need, a lineup with Perez, Macias, Patterson, and Blanco in addition to the pitcher's spot. Viewers will think they're watching the Little League World Series.

[frostwyrm]

If Dusty is determined to play Neifi we could call up Cedeno and put Neifi at 3B while ARam is out.

[biittner77]

If Ramirez goes on the DL does it really matter who plays 3rd? Perhaps two weeks of seeing Macias play 3rd will be enough for the Cubs to not re sign him.

It'll probably be Fontenot. Kelton isn't on the 40-man, while Fontenot is. I fully expect Macias to get all the starts, though.

 

It would be interesting to see the Cubs do something crazy like add Matt Craig to the 40-man and promote him from West Tenn.

That's right I forgot Kelton wasn't on the 40 man. I was wrong.
