I'll give you the brevity factor. But his answer was extremely misleading. Not to mention the way he reported for months last year that Volquez had no options, only to find out he did. He's still an incredible hack, haha.

Cozart is a rookie. Hopefully he will learn. Stubbs should have learned by now. Batting them 1-2 is criminal.

Or can any player within the Reds Org be called up/played in the month of September? Or just players off the 40?
Not dumb questions at all.

Putting him on the 40 man does not use up an option. Being on the 40 man, and being sent to the minors, does use an option. So assuming they want him in the minors after spring training next year, they would be using his first option, which would be good for the entire year.

Only players on the 40 man can be called up, so someone would have to be taken off for him to come up.

Anybody else getting tired of the Transformers: Fall of Cybertron game commercial they show constantly between innings (back to back, sometimes)?
