If Lin...Well, it may not be quite that bleak, Ron. If Lincoln is fully recovered from his Tommy John surgery, he ought to be in black and gold no later than the end of next season. If Moskos continues to develop, he could join us late next year or sometime in 2010. There's also Yoslan Herrera---who at least has some international baseball experience even though his minor league numbers have not been exceptional to this point. And maybe Munoz will head back up to Triple-A and then on to the bigs and he'll never look back. <BR/><BR/>But yes, we are still definitely thin in terms of organizational pitching depth, that is for sure.WilliamJPellashttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12774466220683142262noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6207200414495313452.post-3936464654141180352008-06-23T19:33:00.000-04:002008-06-23T19:33:00.000-04:00Yah, Will, that's my guess. The PG says that Snel...Yah, Will, that's my guess. The PG says that Snell may not miss a start, but I think if for nothing more than mental health reasons, he should be skipped a turn.<BR/>But man, does this little episode of weary wings show how absolutely lacking Pittsburgh is in pitching depth. And from what I read, with the exception of Tanner, none of the arms that the Bucs drafted are anywhere near MLB ready for the near future.Ron Ieracihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08784507810080514099noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6207200414495313452.post-76846728118460456732008-06-23T17:28:00.000-04:002008-06-23T17:28:00.000-04:00I'd have to believe it would be Barthmeier who wou...I'd have to believe it would be Barthmeier who would get the next shot coming up from the minors. When Bullington was here last, Huntington seemed to indicate he thinks of Bullington as a reliever only. Nothing was done to keep Bullington "stretched out" as they say. Add in the fact that Luis Munoz (who would otherwise have been the next in line) has blown his chance and has been demoted back down to double-A, I'd think it would be Barthmeier getting the next callup from Indy.WilliamJPellashttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12774466220683142262noreply@blogger.com
