groiny, if you're not talking about a September callup, I'll take that bet. (nm)

Posted by musubi Jun 29 '11, 14:53

No way Harvey is in the majors before '13, except for a Sept callup (or a series of catastrophic injuries to the ML staff--and even then probably not).

september callups don't count? nm -- nm - groiny Jun 29, 14:56 16
- I don't count it, because it's usually not a permanant call up for most prospects. - musubi Jun 29, 14:59 15
  - he is currently in Double A, so there is a chance he gets a long look in Spring Training. - groiny Jun 29, 15:00 14
    - He's currently made a total of 1 start in AA. I'll bet you $10 he won't be in major league spring training by the time - musubi Jun 29, 15:04 13
      - Errr, those last two should be with the caveat "barring injury to at least 2 ML starters." (nm) - musubi Jun 29, 15:06 6

        oh and another thing.... - groiny Jun 29, 15:07 1
        
        Heh. :) (nm) - musubi Jun 29, 15:08
        
        as long as you have Santana, that is a very real possibility. nm -- nm - groiny Jun 29, 15:06
      - I will take the $10 that he will not appear in the majors at all in 2012. nm -- nm - groiny Jun 29, 15:05 5
        
        Can I get the exception for catastrophic string of pitching injuries? - musubi Jun 29, 15:07 4
        
        hells no. - groiny Jun 29, 15:09 3
        
        Grrr. That's too iffy then. He's got a 50/50 shot at a Sept callup if everything goes as planned. - musubi Jun 29, 15:12 2
        
        See, I see pitchers get called up all the time if they dominate AA as well. - groiny Jun 29, 15:15 1
        
        Yeah, but this is Harvey's first professional season. Not like a HS draftee who's spent 2-3 years working his way up the minors. - musubi Jun 29, 15:22
