All Things Bubba

Andy Phillips hit another home run today. He played 3B and batted cleanup, going 1 for 4. The Bats lost, 1-2.

Some transaction notes....

Colter Bean has found a new team. He signed with the Tampa Rays.

Andy Cannizaro was indeed outrighted by the Rays. He cleared waivers and is back in AAA.

Bats pitcher Justin Lehr is headed for Korea. Apparently, he had a clause in his contract that said if a Korean team wanted to sign him, the Reds had to let him go. You wouldn't think a player would want to go to Korea over AAA, but apparently, it's considered a stepping stone to Japan, and a way for players to make more money.
