If he throwing again as reported ... that's good news. 

Sounds like he will be ok. Just skipping a start. The DL is only 7 days in the minors so you can use it liberally.

Jeff:  Any thought that Scribner could be a big league candidate?  Those AAA numbers (and AA last year) are pretty impressive....I know he doesn't have great stuff but you can't ignore the results...

I don't think they are that high on Scribner. He didn't even get an invite to big league camp after having a pretty good year last year. That being said, if you keep getting results you will force them to bring you up.

I'm wondering why this guy continues to fly under the radar, but them I'm reminded of guys like Brad Mills who had great minor league numbers on the hill, but once promoted to the big leagues got destroyed. 

In 24 games, Brad Mills has a 7.97 ERA. 

In the minors across 183 contests, Mills sports a solid 3.88 ERA, despite pitching later on in some tough AAA environments.
