Transaction Oracle— A Timely Look at Transactions as They Happen

Colorado Rockies - DLed Tsao
Colorado Rockies - Placed P Chin-hui Tsao on the 15-day DL; optioned and claimed P Randy Williams; claimed P Blaine Neal on waivers.
Tsao has been wild as hell when heatlhy (as, strangely enough, has every other Rockie this year, even the good ones) and hasn’t been healthy too much. While Tsao is taking over the duties of the Injured Asian Action Squad~!, Blaine Neal will fill in. Neal was used very sparingly by the Red Sox, but he’s better than he pitched there. Though probably not a Coors pitcher, if any non-sidearmer ever was. Francona lost faith in Neal very quickly. Of course, Francona usually hates half his bullpen; there are a billion lefties on the roster and he seems to use Alan Embree about 90% of the time, setting Embree on pace to best his career high innings by a sizable margin.

1. Biff, highly-regarded young guy Posted: May 14, 2005 at 02:42 PM (#1336103)Fearless prediction: this will not end well.
Opinions?
The other options aren't pretty: Kim (still struggling with control), Witasik (he's Witasik--does pretty well, then hangs a slider). I don't think they'd trust Acevedo, Carvajal (rule 5 guy) or David Cortes (also recently added to the active roster).
He still exists?
Its scary to think that some of these guys were young and prospects once
Check out Cortes' record. He's one of those guys who puts the "journey" in journeyman.
In '98 he gets traded to the Rockies for Colbrunn, but then he's back at Richmond in '99. He missed the 2000 season (injury?), pitched in Mexico in 2002, and only pitched 21 games (all in relief) in 2003-2004 combined.
