In response to "As soon as they're healthy, I'd bring any of them playing well at AAA up." by Will Hunting

I wouldn't. Healthy and at AAA doesn't = ready.

Tillman is healthy, and has some decent stats. He can't seem to pitch into the 5th inning, though. With that issue, he's not ready to be in the majors.

Plus, I wouldn't want to start his service time yet. Of course, I don't expect them to be in the race at the end of the year.

That leaves Waters, Hernandez, and Pauley. Waters would be the first injury replacement. Pauley was not good in spring training, and would need to pass through waivers to be demoted. They passed him through once, and should let him spend at least most of the year at AAA. I wouldn't want to rush Hernandez. If he's still pitching well at the mid-way point, I'd be really tempted to bring him up. Depending on how the guys in the majors are pitching.
