Dana:
re: success picking up guys that were injured/overlooked (walter, King): pleased Walter grinded through 6 innings; Matt Hogan does a great job finding these guys; Dana will jump in and watch video before they make a move. It's what we do in Astroland and we are locked in.
Trade deadline: no secret, would be good to a get a left hand bat. to go with Yordan when he gets back and 3 when Caratini is in the lineup.
Do you have enough capital to get what you want? We have enough we can move. Likes to operate in the present but without giving away the future. As far as money is concerned, Crane has always given what we need to win in this organization.
Yordan: holding a bat and moving it around and seeing how it feels, but not swinging it yet. Will start swinging it sometime soon in the near future. (facepalm) but he's not feeling any pain.
LMJ: could see him off the mound soon, after the next few days. Could be early next week.
Javier: through live BP on Thursday. a few more lives before he goes out on rehab. He was up to 95(!). Throwing 95 on the sides, no competition, is outstanding.
Arrighetti: making really good progress; could throw his first side on Tuesday; He has his foot on the gas and we have to tell him to hold it back. He has to gradually build back up.
