Update on Friday, September 7. Rea and the El Paso Chihuahuas are in the play-offs, but they could be eliminated as soon as tonight. Rea is scheduled to start Saturday's game if the play-off series is El Paso wins tonight's contest. Rea's promotion, or lack thereof, should follow soon after the El Paso season ends.
Evan Marshall has been removed from Cleveland's 40-man roster. This transaction removes him from the Super Two picture.
Update on Thursday, August 30. Dull is optioned back to AAA. He now has 2.118 service time. Unless there is an injury, he can't be promoted again until September 9. A promotion on that date would put him in line to end the season with a service time tally of 2.140. That number would put him a Super Two seat.
Update on Tuesday, August 28. Dull is promoted by Oakland. Assuming he stays up to the end of the season, a likelihood with September call-ups right around the corner, he is practically a lock for Super Two status.
September call-ups can begin in less than a week. There are three players who could still jump into a Super Two slot (and bump someone of the bubble) if they are promoted soon enough. The AAA regular season ends on September 3 this year.
Colin Rea, P, San Diego. Due to injuries, Rea has not pitched in the majors since 2016. However, he currently has two years and 139 days of career service time. He is active with El Paso at the moment.
He needs at least two days of service time to reach the requirement of 86 service days this season. If he can reach that threshold, he will gain a Super Two spot.
NOTE: El Paso is in line for the post-season, which could delay a promotion for Rea.
Ryan Dull, P, Oakland. Dull is currently at AAA Nashville with two years and 116 days of big league service time. It looks like the cut-off for Super Two status will be around two years and 134 days of service time. If Dull gets promoted as soon as the AAA regular season ends, he has a great chance to claim a Super Two spot.
Evan Marshall, P, Cleveland. Marshall, like Rea, has had some injury issues. He spent some time in the big leagues this season(mostly on the disabled list). At AAA Columbus, he currently holds two years and 107 days of service time. He needs to get called up as soon as the minor league regular season ends if he is to have a chance at Super Two status. Even that might not do the trick for Marshall.
NOTE: Columbus as a good chance at qualifying for the play-offs, which could delay a promotion for Marshall.
