I have heard many different things about Clayton Kershaw. Some have said that he will get a Mid-May call up or he will be down the entire year.
David Price is another one. I know he has had some injury problems this year, but any idea when this guy will get called up?
I think both of these guys are going to be absolute studs and would love to pick them off of waivers in one of the leagues that I am in. So any ideas?
Price threw in a BP session two days ago and he said he was fine, but with that said it is almost May and he has not thrown in a live MiLB game yet, so I don't think he will be up this year
I doubt Price will be up this year. Tampa seems to take their time with their pitching prospects, so don't get your hopes up. I'm sure Kershaw will get a closer look once the Dodgers are out of it, so be ready to see him get the call later this year.
Jody, Jody Davis. Hits 'em high and far. Jody, Jody Davis. He's a superstar. Holy Cow!!!! http://www.stinkytee.com
i think kershaw might be up earlier than expected. i'm not sure what torre is trying to do with his 5th starter spot but he's been starting kuo for 3 innings then loiaza is coming in relief for 3 innings. not sure why he is doing this and it is clearly not working since this strategy also eats into the BP. i think loiaza could end up as a permanent move to the BP and kershaw would be brought up. at this rate...i wouldn't be surprised at all to see him by mid-may.
Yeah, I don't see Price getting called up this year. It seems like the Rays would bring up McGee before Price. As for Kershaw, I think the Dodgers need him now, but they're going to give him some more time. I'm thinking a Late-May to Mid-June call-up.

If Price comes back healthy within the next month he will def be called up before McGee

Hah, well if that's the case, I hope Price does get healthy within the next month. I dig the Rays and I feel the Price is right.
