All Things Bubba

The Bats won 1-0 tonight, giving them back-to-back shutouts. Ryan Freel played CF and went 1 for 4 with a walk. They seem to be expecting him to rejoin the Reds soon.

Bubba Crosby is now the only player left on the Bats disabled list. He's still in Florida, but the radio announcers said again that they thought he might be rejoining the Bats soon. Not as an active player, but to continue rehabbing. Maybe he's getting lonely down there in Sarasota.

The Yankees beat the Twinkies tonight. Andy Phillips seems to have earned himself the starting 1B job. He was 1 for 4 with a walk and a double tonight.

Poor Chris Basak was finally sent down. The long-awaited Edwar Ramirez was called up. I guess if they wanted an infielder they could send back and forth to Scranton as needed, Basak was the one to keep, and Phelps was the one to release.

Edwar still hasn't pitched for the Yanks. I wish Torre would use him. He's put up some amazing numbers in the minors. I want to see what he can do.
