Gallagher is only 22 and he’s dominating AAA after having done quite well at AA.
Anyone know what he throws? Is he another Reyes/Hirsh type?

Because we had no idea

A:) No we are exploring a lot of different options.
Q;) Some deal that may be close?

A.) His arms not falling off?...
Q.) Good news on Wainwright and Carp?
A.) Very realistic to be back by the end of Aug.
it's a little adlib
He said they were looking to see if they could get innings out of Mulder. Not to see if he’s arms are falling off.
