My guess is that it depends on when the player was first placed on the 15-day DL. If it's been more than 60 days then I think the player would be eligible. However, if a previously uninjured player were placed on the 60-day DL to make someone else eligible for the playoff roster then I don't think the player could come back even as an injury replacement if healthy (since he will not have yet spent 60 days on the DL).
With Manning you really only need to have one backup quarterback to cover his bye week. I'd keep whichever of your backups (Favre or McNair) looks to have a more favorable matchup the week the Colts are off.
Apparently the Red Sox think you can do this. When they optioned John Lester to the minor leagues last week with the intention of recalling him when rosters expand they mentioned he'd still be eligible for the postseason roster.
There must have been some scoring corrections. I was just under 300 points with all games over when I went to bed, yet this morning when the results were final I was over 300.
Too little too late for me to make the playoffs this year, but my win this week is a milestone. I now have as many wins this year as I had in 2005 and 2006 combined. Baby steps. :D
I think Murton is more likely. When it comes down to a decision about which one they want to keep up to maintain postseason eligibility I think they'll keep Pie for his speed and defense. I think Monroe spelled the end of Murton's postseason hopes.
He isn't. It was just one game (and Monroe did get a hit as well as a near-home run). Maybe Lou just wanted to give Derosa a couple of days off with the off-day tomorrow. Soriano returns Tuesday, so Monroe won't be playing every day. I'd look for him to platoon with Floyd.
I think that's most likely the case. Even though the rules stipulate 6 months, there's no reason the teams can't agree to an earlier deadline. If the teams have already agreed to who the player will be, and they just have to wait until the season is over to get around the need for waivers, there wouldn't be any reason to wait longer.
Don Sutton won at least 10 games a year for 15 consecutive years, not 21. Yeah but didn't he win 10 in 21 seasons? Total, yes. Consecutive, no. The Cy Young record he broke was for consecutive seasons, not total.
I haven't been following the AL very closely, so I was shocked when I read that Wakefield has won 16 games already this year. Talk about a surprise 20-game winner if he makes it.
E-Evil woman!! Don't bring me down, groose.You mean Bruce?No, "groose" is the actual word in the song (although it does look like I misspelled it). Don't ask me what it means.
