And starting tonight at 1B.

So Belt is back and in theory, Chez3 was sent down so he could start tonight. Keppinger was acquired and put on the 40-man roster when Freddie was moved to the 60-day DL. But to put Keppinger on the 24-man roster, another move needs to be made.

One theory is that Miggy is going on the DL. But I have also heard that his injury is not that bad and this morning I heard they didn't expect a DL stint for him.

If Miggy doesn't go on the DL, the logical move would be to move Manny Burriss back to Fres-neck. Keppinger is most comfortable at 2B but can play SS in a pinch. With Crawford, Tejada and Keppinger on the roster, Burriss doesn't look to get a lot of action. Might as well move him back to the minors where he can play instead of rotting away on the bench.

Just heard on CSN that Miggy is, in fact, headed for the DL. So Keppinger will take his spot and Burriss will have a spot on the big league roster until Tea-Java returns from the DL.
