We don't have 40 on the roster 
If we did many could be released and not hurt
 
Always true. A few if released would not be claimed anyway
since all teams do have a 40.

I count ~7 that can be cleared in the offseason, and 2 already open

It should never be a worry, IMO.

				Put Scott, Donovan, and Contreras on the IL for the rest of the year.
Call up Wetherholt, Church, and Jordan

				It's a shame that they don't have any top prospects or anything that they could call up if they sucked it up and put Donovan in the IL before he hurts himself worse trying to play through injuries. Well, there's Wetherholt, but he's not on the 40 man, and if they were to have to put him on the 40 it would just create such a [shirt] storm I'm not sure our team could ever recover. 
I'm not sure how they were able to call up Church and put him on the 40 man without the skies parting and molten fire raining down upon Busch Stadium.

				Prieto deserves a call up, and Fermin.
