A) A.J Reed
B) Julio Urias
C) Blake Snell (Already had a cup of coffee)
D) Tyler Glasnow
E) Other - If so, who?

Trea Turner and AJ Reed are the two likeliest to get called up first imo. I wouldn't be surprised to see Taillon get called up before Glasnow either.

AJ Reed is off to a slow start. The Astros need his bat but AAA has been rough on him thus far. Turner or Snell is the right answer.

For a guy trying to make a jump from AAA to the majors? I agree, his .850 OPS isn't that great. Dude has tons of power but his .244 average doesn't make the Astros sleep better at night.

He has definitely underwhelmed the big league club thus far.

Couldn't see the Yankees call up Sanchez unless McCann goes down with an injury. If that doesn't happen he won't be called up until after the AS break.

His walk and strikeout rates are as good as last year. And his ISO is even higher. The only difference is his BABIP is 130 points lower. Now maybe he isn't making the same type of contact, but it could just as easily be random variation. A few extra well hit balls finding a glove. I doubt the Astros are worried about it.

Dodgers discussing bringing Urias up as a RP. That sucks for his value.

Sources say the Phillies have called up Tommy Joseph. He's leading the International League in OPS.


His OPS this year is something like 1.2. Probably will replace Rupp in the platoon with Howard. Not like Howard is playing that great either.

Ruf I think is in the platoon with Howard. The thing that kept me from jumping on Joseph was that he'd still platoon with Howard. I don't know for how long, I can't believe Howard is still getting the lion's share of playing time as it is.
