Pretty sure he can't take Flaherty's spot, as Flash is a Rule 5er. Now, he hasn't played much in the past couple weeks, but I doubt it'll be him.

Tomorrow is Ollie's Bargain Ticket night, Wei-Yin Chen Chinese Character shirt night...and still most folks in the 410 will be watching the pre-season game against the Falcons.

Flaherty is on the DL, that's what I meant. But Thome is coming off soon and Flaherty will be back. Lew Ford probably gets DFA'd first....I guess they could DFA McLouth but I see them sending Machado back down when Flaherty comes back - unless he gives them a major reason not to.

I doubt if you see Flaherty before rosters expand: 15 days on DL and then send him out for rehab assignment, reach Sept. 1 no problem. I think they hope Machado will play better defense at third than Betemit and hit better than Bam Dino.

He's on the DL with a bacterial infection. I doubt the Orioles will put him on a rehab assignment.
