They Recalled who.....Nunez ?
2008-06-06 02:25:00 The Mets sent down Nick Evans today, the move doesn't come as a surprise as Evans looked clearly over matched at this early stage in his career. Like I said before I'm sure the experience will serve as incentive to not only Evans but all the young players in AA who hear the stories about "The Show". What is more of a surprise is who he was replaced by, they chose to re-called recently signed Abraham Nunez. The slick fielding infielder has been struggling at the plate in AAA, the Brewers released him after he hit only .210 in Nashville and so far with the Zeph's he was hitting .133. The Mets must be comfortable with Tatis as a left fielder with Endy being the defensive replacement. That leaves Easley as the bench infielder and they wanted a defensive replacement. If your looking for an all glove no bat, Ahern has never come close to Nunez's lifetime .247 BA so it makes sense from that aspect. I still don't understand why one of Feliciano, Aguila or Pascucci weren't recalled. I ...

Meek DFA, Burnett Recalled
2008-05-04 17:27:00 Evan Meek was designated for assignment this morning to make room for the recall of Sean Burnett. Burnett has been excellent for Indy out of the pen posting a 0.98 ERA in 12 appearances over 17 1/3 innings. BTW Take: Well, it is a day early to make me look like a mastermind. I did call for a move last week to send Meek back. In the return of the Pittsburgh Pirates Round Table (should be up in the next day or so), I actually called this move a couple days ago. This move makes perfect sense. Meek, while touted for a 97 MPH fastball, discovered if he throws it 89-92 he can control it better. Only problem is, he is still wild but with a league average fastball. In his most recent outing, he never topped 92 on the radar gun while being wildly erratic to the point of being unexplainably effective. Over the last 2 outings he threw twice as many balls as strike but escaped due to the double play and anxious hitters chasing balls ...

Brandon Wood Recalled
2008-04-28 20:01:00 Here's an interesting guy to add if you have roster space. He's currently leading the minors with 8 homers and has 18 RBI to go along with that.He strikes out a lot and his AVG has consistently been .275.He could see home time at 2b, 3b, or SS, where he's been playing in AAA.His AVG year over the last 2 seasons in the minors has been .275 - 75 - 24 - 75 - 15.So, he could chip in 10+ steals as well. He's currently listed as 3b in Yahoo and CBS, but could gain more eligibility as the year progresses.If we are jumping at the bit to add the K leader Max Scherzer, why not take a chance on the HR leader?I don't suggest using more than 10 FAAB bucks, but he sounds pretty similar to...

Pick up Scherzer in NL-only leagues and very deep mixed leagues for now until we know more about his role.

Garciaparra, who missed the first 14 games with a microfracture in his wrist, will be shelved this time because of a strained left calf he suffered when reaching for a ball down the third-base line in the ninth inning of the Dodgers' 13-inning, 8-7 victory over the Colorado Rockies on Friday night.

Morse to DL; Rhodes Recalled
2008-04-14 23:15:00 As I speculated last night, Mike Morse has been placed on the 15-day disabled list with a dislocated left shoulder he suffered on an awkward dive attempt in yesterday's ballgame. Seattle was probably thrilled at the chance to get Morse off of the 25-man roster without losing him entirely, as he is of little use to the ballclub as of now.Veteran lefty Arthur Rhodes has been called up to take his spot on the roster. I haven't been a fan of Rhodes this time around, and I'm not at all convinced that he can still get it done, but even with my doubts these latest flurry of moves get Seattle's roster back to where it should be: 12-man pitching staff, 4-man bench.Bullpen:Mark Lowe, RArthur Rhodes, LRoy Corcoran, RSean Green, RRyan Rowland-Smith, LR.A.

Cards' Pineiro strong in rehab start, could be recalled
2008-04-09 15:14:00 Joel Pineiro made what may prove to be his final prep Tuesday before returning to the St. Louis Cardinals' rotation, allowing two runs and six hits in six innings for Class AAA Memphis against New Orleans according to the St. Louis Post-Dispatch.Pineiro, slowed during spring training by shoulder tightness, did not receive a decision for the Redbirds but rallied after allowing both runs on three singles and a ground ball in the first inning. Pineiro struck out five consecutive hitters in one stretch. Pineiro walked one in an efficient outing that included 57 strikes among 78 pitches.Club officials have remained cautious in any projections for Pineiro, saying that the performance and how he recovered would dictate whether another start was necessary. Manager Tony La Russa and pitching coach Dave Duncan said Pineiro's start opposite Brad Thompson's appearance in Houston had no bearing on whom Pineiro might replace in the rotation. La Russa repeated that "the best five" would remain.

Both cases involve the actual seat separating from the base unit, but one is if there is a car crash in the front and the other involves side impact auto accidents.

Metal Water Bottles Recalled for Lead Paint-
2008-03-27 01:45:00 You try and try to do the right thing as a parent. I've often commented that it feels like being a tiny fish swimming upstream, trying to navigate what to buy and use with your kids, while protecting them from rampant advertising, toxic chemicals and in many cases, themselves (as they dive headfirst of the couch). Many parents are buying aluminum or stainless steel water bottles for their kids, because of all the media attention and studies about the chemical BPA (Bisphenol A)in certain plastics. So you go out and buy one from a seemingly harmless company with a quaint name out of Maine, called Downeast Concepts. They look like the Sigg bottles, but they most definitely are not. These bottles have been recalled for violating the lead paint standards. Here is the recall from the CPSC. See the above picture, and be sure to visit the link above for more detailed information. My daughters use Sigg bottles, and the company seems to have a strong environmental commitment and a pledge to...

I know a lot about David Beckham and what he can offer the team."Lets hope that they actually play him, because to make him travel all that way just to sit on the bench would be cruel.Source
