He got a quality start, no decision, and an RBI single. Cincinnati beat Pittsburgh walk-off.
Jason Giambi beat the Mets tonight.

There isn't even anything left to say about our poor neighbors.Jason Giambi beat the Mets tonight.
Sean Henn got the loss for Rochester against Scranton/Wilkes-Barre.

I said it once, I'll say it again would have been nice to get Giambi back for a bench role

His OPS with the A's was less than .700. I would much rather have Pena/Hinske/Hairston/Molina/Gardner over any combination with him.
true, but he has been hurt most of the year.

So he wouldn't be hurt with us?

Yes. The most wins he has with one team is 29 with his first team, Cincinnati.
and he's now complaining of "elbow discomfort".
The defending AAA champion Sacramento River Cats, who are down 0-2 to Memphis in their five game series, will start two veteran pitchers in games 3 and 4 of the PCL Championships, with Jerome Williams taking the mound Friday and Shawn Chacon on Saturday. Williams, who allowed one run over 7.0 innings to beat Tacoma in Game 3 of the first-round series, won 10 games for the San Francisco Giants in 2004. Chacon, who earned the win in Sacramento’s series-clinching Game 4 against Tacoma, was an All-Star for the Colorado Rockies in 2003 when he won 11 games.
The Yankees are now 206-1 when Mariano has been asked to protect a four-run lead.
Isn't this bizarre?
Looks great in purple.

from mlbtraderoumors.comThe Pirates claimed pitcher Anthony Claggett off waivers from the Yankees,
Pirates just can't resist those Yankee castoffs.

the rest is just details.
They most have been impressed with his relief performance for Wang earlier this season against the Indians.
Remember when many of us marveled about the Sheffield deal and what a genius Cashman was for getting 3 young pitching studs. There's a trade that seems to have lost much of its lustre.

Former Rockies pitcher Shawn Chacon was arrested in Greeley on a charge related to unpaid gambling markers in Nevada, according to the Greeley Tribune.
Weld County sheriff's officials say they released him Tuesday, one day after his arrest, after learning Las Vegas authorities decided not to extradite him.
The Las Vegas Sun reported Friday that Chacon, a graduate of Greeley Central High School, faces a felony charge in connection with three bad checks written for $50,000 to Caesars Palace in March.
Yeah, sure has. Who were the pitchers again - Sanchez, Claggett, and ???
Getting a bag of balls for Sheffield would have been more than even.
Marlins released Proctor today.

The Pirates claimed pitcher Chris Jakubauskas off waivers from the Mariners, according to a team press release. The designated Jeff Karstens for assignment to make room for Jakubauskas.

But I thought Jeff Karstens was great, and Cashman was an idiot for letting him get away!
Guess I'll post this here; as per Lohud Shelley Duncan is now a FA.
Bet a million bucks the Pirates pick him up.

Wasnt it Melancon?
"I am the law, bitch"
nah, they just like our pitchers
sanchez, claggett, and kevin whelan, whelan being the lone survivor of the bunch
sanchez looked like a great pickup at the time, but the dude just couldn't stay healthy... thus the risk in acquiring him
Oh yeah, Whelan. My bad.

Former MLB catcher Sal Fasano will manage the Blue Jays' Class A Lansing affiliate, according to Jordan Bastian of MLB.com.
i still liked that trade merely for getting rid of sheff for more than abag of balls.

Anyone who knocks that trade is the King of All Hindsight. That was a fantastic move by Cash, who picked up Sheffield's option explicitly to trade him. He judged the market right in that there was at least one suitor willing to give up prime prospects to acquire/extend a slugging RH bat. As pitching prospects go, Sanchez was a gem and Whelan was a project with a tremendous arm. Sanchez has had injury problems and is looking like he's flaming out. He's only pitched ~50 innings since TJ surgery in '07. I know the Yanks released and then re-signed him last year, but I don't think they've given up on him entirely. Hopefully it just took him some extra time to recover from TJ and he can develop into a contributor for us or another org.
Whelan's issue is control. He has overpowering stuff - he just can't locate it. See his '09 stats between Trenton and SWB...
Whelan '09: 4-0, 2.67 ERA, 67 IP, 85 K, 41 BB, 6.0 H/9, 11.4 K/9
Ron Villone is still in baseball? I thought he was finished a year and a half ago.Pirates have tentative interest in Xavier Nady and Ron Villone
Baseball is life;
the rest is just details.
He's got a heartbeat and he throws with his left arm...he'll always have a job in baseball.
The Mets and Cards are also looking at Nady as a buy-low guy. A supplemental pick would have been nice but I can understand why the FO didn't want to risk having him back on a 1 year/$7+ million deal.

Igawa: That's secret.

Stanton Pumped To Start Coaching Prep Team
http://www.nypost.com/p/sports/yanke...a9t3yhfTqoIyyM
Mike Stanton has yet to retire from baseball officially, but he has found himself a pretty good job in the game he loves.
The lefty reliever, who earned three championship rings during his time with the Yankees, now is the head coach at Don Bosco Prep in Ramsey, N.J.
The school has a tremendous winning tradition, just like the Yankees. The Ironmen football team was No. 1 in the nation this past season, and over the last two years the baseball team put up a 59-5 record, including a majestic 33-0 mark in 2008 under Greg Butler, who is now an athletic director at another school. Stanton helped with the team last year on the freshman, JV and varsity level.Stanton, 42, looks at this as a great opportunity, plus he gets to coach his son, Cameron, who is a right-handed pitcher and outfielder.Why did Stanton want to coach at this level?
“I’ve been on the road so much,” he said. “Then I started going to see my son play. It kind of turned into me hanging around every day and they ended up giving me a uniform. But I’ve always had a passion of working with kids."Best of luck to my favorite player...“One of the things we’re really going to preach is teamwork, and being for the team,” Stanton said. “That’s always been my approach to put the team first, especially being the offensive linemen of baseball. While I was in New York, my job was to protect Mariano.”
“Sometimes all of us need to be reminded that this is just a kid’s game. We just happen to be grown men playing it.” --Mike Stanton
