It's my...Wish there was a better answer on Miller. It's mystifying.<BR/><BR/>I do like the idea of getting as many IP out of Miller as possible before he is inevitably injured.<BR/><BR/>By the way, either he or Koplove (or anyone) DO have to be on the 25-man roster by August 31st to be eligible for the postseason roster, if it comes to that.<BR/><BR/>So, if one of them comes up, but not until September 1st, and establishes himself as a vital cog in the bullpen, he would be ineligible for postseason roster consideration.Paul Cousineauhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03490622970961409253noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11805401.post-6524529397563308682007-08-24T15:49:00.000-04:002007-08-24T15:49:00.000-04:00There's no reason for the Indians or anyone else t...There's no reason for the Indians or anyone else to whine about needing another bullpen arm when Miller and Koplove toil away in Buffalo without a chance to prove themselves as viable members of the '07 team.<BR/><BR/>Thanks for the shout-out. ;-) I say Koplove has the track record in MLB to be a lock. Consider these stats:<BR/><BR/>3.78 career ERA (253 IP)<BR/>1.84 AAA ERA 2007 (49 IP)<BR/><BR/>The K/BB isn't great, but I say he deserves a shot.<BR/><BR/>And then their is the mysterious case of Matt Miller. Why isn't he here? I don't care if he always gets injured - let him pitch till he blows out his arm! He'll be great till that happens. DL him, call up Mujica, demote Mujica when Miller's healthy, and repeat. That makes the most sense to me.Voltairehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10258794828672578619noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11805401.post-91764338403342291412007-08-24T11:03:00.000-04:002007-08-24T11:03:00.000-04:00What happened to Matt Miller?
