Fultz to be DFAd; Lee the fifth starter
Recently acquired Craig Breslow will get the first opportunity to replace Fultz as the second left-hander in the bullpen. The Fultz DFA will open up a spot for Jorge Julio or Scott Elarton if the Indians choose either for the last spot in the bullpen.

Re: Fultz to be DFAd; Lee the fifth starter
seems like one thing keeps leading to the next. i think jay's right about elarton heading to buffalo and julio to the 25-man. mastny gets featured, regular work in buffalo a phone call away.

Re: Fultz to be DFAd; Lee the fifth starter
Juan Lara outrighted (39)
Craig Breslow claimed off waivers (40)
Aaron Fultz DFAd (39)
Unidentified reliever (probably Julio) added (40)
So while Breslow is probably going to take Fultz's spot on the 25-man roster, he took the 40-man roster spot vacated by Lara.

Re: Fultz to be DFAd; Lee the fifth starter
Says Wade, "Veteran middle relievers with spotty track records can be the linchpin to any mediocre team. Stockpiling mediocrity ensures nobody remembers for any significant period of time the names of the pitchers I entrust to break the confidence of my starting pitchers and my team's fans."
More solid work by Shapiro.

What are your thoughts on this? I remember you vehemently supporting Fultz from others who wanted to dump him earlier.

Re: Fultz to be DFAd; Lee the fifth starter
(The other lawyers here may get that one.) It was a long day in Court.
The best part of the Fultz sandwich deal is that the to go order comes with a free 25 man roster spot.

Re: Fultz to be DFAd; Lee the fifth starter
As for Fultz, I'm kinda glad to see him go. I've been rather 'meh' on him for quite a while now, as I think many have been. He's never annoyed like some other players, and I wish him well as a waiver wire pickup someplace else, but... It's a good thing to free up the space.
And as for Lee making the team, I just hope this is some sort of ruse to up his value so we can trade him. He's just standing in the way of promising arms.

Re: Fultz to be DFAd; Lee the fifth starter
Jay showed convincingly that Fultz wasn't as brutal as we all remember him being; however, I still like the "upside" of a real LOOGY in game situations vs. Fultz projected decline.
Nice, subtle, FO move that will probably come in handy. Vintage Shapiro.

Re: Fultz to be DFAd; Lee the fifth starter
If the FO truly does see Fultz never having recovered physically/mentally/stuff-wise from that injury, his August/September stats plus his horrendous spring certainly gave them ample reason to cut ties with him. I was certainly of the opinion that it was a tad premature to let him go right now, but presented in the context of post-injury struggles, I have to consider myself converted.
