he will make a simulated start next Tuesday or Wednesday and then go to AAA for rehab. Walker made four starts for AAA...3 IP, 4.2 IP, 5.2 IP and 9 IP, I believe. If Paxton has a similar progression, we have about five Elias starts left before we have Paxton to drop in there (because the ASB buys us an extra start). So Elias would be moved to the pen around the beginning of August with Paxton replacing him. Elias would stay in the pen for the post-season and Walker would probably be shut down and not even make the post-season roster (because our right handed relievers are better than Walker would be in one-inning stints and there are only 25 roster spots).
