Question

Will the Brewers call up Escobar in Sept? Phillies call up Carrasco in Sept?

Answer 1

Yes

No

Answer 2

Escobar is a possibility to be called up - but there's a big difference between being called up and actually playing. As long as the Brewers are in the wild card hunt, I can't see him getting significant playing time over J.J. Hardy.

As for Carrasco - can't see that one at all. Maybe if he were already on the 40 man roster, I could see it - but as long as the Phillies are in a dogfight with the Mets, who'd risk any games on a 21 year old rookie when you don't have to? And if the Phillies fall out of the race, why start his arbitration clock this year - no reason to do so..
