Maybe Thomas will get called up in time for Back to School night:
So, there is no setback for Meyers? I was confused.
Does Meyers continue to play at AAA while on the 60-day? Very clear to me I do not understand how all these machinations work.

Yes (Meyers is still on his rehab assignment for another week or so). Only thing that IL move did was open up a spot on the 40-man for Dillon Thomas, clubhouse poet extraordinaire.
Sugar Land had an open roster spot for Thomas once Matijevic was called up.

Do not go gentle into that good DFA.

Did it say Jake’s HR was against Tyson Miller?
He just pitched in the Astros series Monday or Tuesday.
Yesterday.
All my troubles seemed so far away, until I went to start my mower an hour ago
Could be worse: if Sphinx can’t start his mower, the Astros are screwed.

Brilliant!
Can’t start his mower or can’t “start his mower?”
Meyers and Taylor have less than a week left in their rehabs.
Both have options left so they can just stay down at Sugar Land if not ready or there isn’t a spot in the majors for them.
But they are both on the 60 day IL so they would have to be put on the 40 man. So 2 people will need to be taken off of it.
That is why I was puzzled by the move of picking up Dillon Thomas.
Maybe Click has something in the works?
The move was simply precautionary because they had no healthy position players left. Thomas will almost certainly be the first DFA on those transactions. What will be telling us if Odorizzi to 60 day is the second.

How long has he been out? That would definitely give them more 40-man time if it fits with his timetable.
Just read he’s 30-days from his injury. Yes, another month would be telling.
Man, I thought he would be back in 2-3 weeks full strength.

After the game, yeah. When it happened I thought he was out for 12 months or more.
I did not see it happen. I am talking about watching him throw a few days later.
