Is the DL stint retroactive?
Should be interesting to see him in the lineup. Hopefully he can produce.

It'll be retroactive to May 7, so Lind will be eligible to return in less than a week.
Hopefully Thames gets more than 4-5 games to prove that he belongs.

Finally.
Hopefully Farrell plays him over Rivera.

I'm hopeful, but not too optimistic. IIRC, he did most of his damage earlier in spring training, before the opposing pitchers got serious.

Cooper's back in Vegas, he was sent down when Nix was reactivated.

Jmac is going back to the bench. Nix should be the starter at 3B.
Hopefully Thames goes to the DH spot where he can mash the RHP.

This should mean Rivera is done getting regular ABs.

Lind goes to Florida to rehab, DL is retroactive to May 8.
Thames chosen for his LH hitting.

He can pinch hit left handers but that's about it.

Maybe we could trade him back to the Angels... they could use a left-fielder.

This is awesome, provided he gets a longer look than 5 or 6 games, regardless of how he does
