Here's what it takes to get a stock out of our Bullpen and into the Club portfolio

You may have noticed our new weekly Mailbag education feature, where we answer subscribers' questions as part of our commitment to demystifying Wall Street jargon and trading concepts to help make you a better and more informed investor. Here's our Mailbag email investingclubmailbag@cnbc.com — so you send your questions directly to Jim Cramer and his team of analysts. Make sure to read our weekly Mailbag dispatch to see if your question is one of the ones we pick to answer. (Reminder, we can't offer personal investing advice. We will only consider more general questions about the investment process or stocks in the portfolio or related industries.)

This week's question: I'm a founding member of the Investing Club. The club is fantastic! With MRVL currently in the "Bullpen," at what price would Jim and Jeff decide to make a buy and add it to the portfolio? Many thanks.
