Didn't he get hurt last night jogging to first base? If he is going to steal money like this, he should at least try to get himself in shape.

There shouldn't be any urgency, IMO. I'd rather have Moose riding the bench than one of the kids. If you are bringing them up, it should be to play. Moose is a veteran, a clubhouse leader and has been part of winning cultures. There is value to that. If they need the roster spot bad enough, you cross that bridge when you get there.

Keep him on the roster if for no other reason than to maintain control over him. Let him know there’s no way he’ll ever see the field again, separate him from the rest of the team, and then make him run laps until he pukes or retires. Every. Single. Day.
Moose is back to the IL with a calf strain. Alejo Lopez up to take his place

"He reminds me of me when I was that age -- the way he plays the game, I mean," Pete Rose talking about Chris Sabo
Keeping him off means they have flexibility is my guess.
The season is crap, but don't expect them to advance guys at the expense of their control over them. They will ride the Moose's and Lopez's into the sunset. They have to go .500 to end up with just 90 losses.
They aren't going to start anyone's clock to play in a lost season, if folks don't like that understood. But that's how it will go down

Moose is what Waynes was for the Bengals.... stolen money.
