Nice writeup. RE: Rondon, that was a shortlived experiment, he’s already back to being a starter. He started last night and his numbers look good considering the way CLE yanked him around in the past two weeks:

5 IP, 4 H, 2 ER, 1 BB, 6 SO

la porta called up to sit on the bench. val buena (??) plays almost full time, but cant hit his weight.  time to blow up this team and bring up all the kids for some on the job training.  brantley, santana, rondon…  they all need to play in the majors NOW.  hafner, de rosa, delucci, et al are not getting the job done. time to look to the future.

I’m not saying Lawrie’s definitely going to be promoted, but he’s a cut above Gindl in terms of his prospect status. Also, the fact that Cutter Dykstra has been moved to 2B but has already proven himself at Helena has to be considered. All told, I think Dykstra gets bumped back up to Wisconsin after getting some game experience at his new position at Helena, and Lawrie gets a concomitant promotion to Brevard County.

Matusz should be up by next year, not 2011.  They’re giving him the Wieters treatment, but he’s so polished an big league ready that he will definitely not be in the minors for another whole season or 2.  Probably will be called up next June or July
