Has anyone else heard that possibility of Noot goong on extended IL ?

PS One note Fermin is out of options so Cardinal would be in position that if he is not put on the 26 hey would be forced to DFA him and they would not want to do that so the thinking is he has a spot on the final 26.
Does anyone know if he out of the toes-to-chin "iron boot" which has kept him alive for the past several months?
Haven't heard anything on that . I do know he has that special statonary bike.
He has a special tread mill.
He is a special tread mill.
Always in the same place, never advancing.

From his progress last year, at least he appears to appreciate the game and do whatever he needs to earn time.

If it comes down to the two (Fermin vs Saggese) for one final roster spot, then I keep Fermin.

Wouldn’t be a bad thing. The longer he’s out the better, for him and the team. You’re right if you think I’m not a Nootbaar fan.

I can foresee him never playing another game in the Cardinal uniform again.
Fermin is going to be a good player for us.
Honest question...but what makes you say that about Fermin?

Currently leaning in that direction myself.

Because that is his established record.
Zero advancement over the past 5 years.
Pacing in place at best - if anything, he is going backwards.

They may trade Romero for someone who doesn't have to be rostered.
