Also traded to the Rangers was Bahr. Baggs says the move was to get under the tax. Cash or the infamous PTBNL coming from the Rangers. Neither Gearrin nor Ajax will be missed, but we may regret throwing Bahr in to this deal.

Bahr wasnt “thrown in”. He was the centerpiece.

Now that I read more, I see you are correct. For once. My apologies. :P

I'm okay with the trade. Bahr is worth getting rid of excess fat on the roster

Samardzija back to the DL

Tomlinson recalled for today

Is Sammy finished or hurt? A plea to the powers that be: Don't bring him back until he's capable of this: 200+ innings, with 20 qs's, and 32BB (last years stats). If he had just come close to those stats we'd be in first.

According to Kruk, the problem is that Sammy flat out lies. He is a “tough guy” and refuses to acknowledge when he is hurt, so the training staff has no idea how he is feeling until he is in the game stinking up the place.

Worked out pretty well tonight

Jones can be a solid (if not spectacular) major leaguer. He has improved every year. And he is having a really good year at AAA. Hitting for average and power, and playing good defense.

I agree. He can be a nice role player

Jones sent back to Sacto
Belt returns from the Paternity list

Blach and KT sent down to Sac; Strat and Longo up. Belt to DL; Blach brought up.

Now THATS confusing.

I am pretty sure that does not activate an option for Blach. I THINK he needs to be down at least 10 days to actually trigger an option.

Why Tomlinson over Jones?

Why Tomlinson over Jones?

Because Jones hit a HR. Kids are not supposed to show up the old guard.

 

[calsnowskier]

Why Tomlinson over Jones?

Seriously, though, I am guessing they are showcasing/testing KT. He has no more options after this year, so they are giving him a shot to earn a spot with SOMEONE for next year.
