Does anyone know if these guys are going to be ready to come up anytime soon?

[EmpireWF]

I doubt any of the position players are up anytime soon. Carlos Gomez I guess could potentially be a September call-up next season but I'd look at sometime in 2008 as a MLB target date.

Pelfrey and Humber are probably the closest guys to the big leagues.

Mike Pelfry and Alay Soler came up, but will go down any second.
