that kind of performance would get him bumped to AAA on Thursday morning
Not sure why everyone was upset about this.

JL stated 2 or 3 weeks ago they were giving Appel 2 or 3 more starts in Lancaster before possibly moving him up. Well guess what he had three starts and they moved him up.

Oh and I missed it the other day but Ortiz sucks, since I moved here in 2007 all of his stuff has been him trying to be all Skip Bayless.

nobody is advocating that Ortiz is good. what he reported was necessary but also very intuitive. Bo Porter and Quinton MCCraken are both ex-players and they themselves likely saw the problem it would cause with other players that the perception of giving something to a guy who hadn't earned it while other deserving players are looked over wouldn't sit well.

Every person who has ever played the game would likely feel that way.

The bullpen session is really a non-issue, but the promotion is.
