Nationals Release Gary Glover
Bill Ladson of MLB.com tells us that the Nationals have given right-hander Gary Glover his unconditional release following 10 appearances in which Glover totaled a 6.32 ERA with the Nationals Triple-A affiliate in Syracuse. Glover became replaceable once the Nationals inked Mike MacDougal to a minor league deal last week. MacDougal will join the major league club after a few weeks.
Ladson also cites acting general manager Mike Rizzo in saying that Jorge Sosa will soon be ready to join the Syracuse club on May 22, as his 50-game suspension wraps up. Sosa was suspended last year after testing positive for an amphetamine.

I once pitched a perfect game with Gary Glover on MVP 2005 on the all-star difficulty. Gary, if you're reading this, my life was pretty pathetic enough to even start you in that game, anyway.

so they release someone with a 6 something ERA from AAA ball, yet they somehow think its safe to keep Rivera and Kensing on the major league roster? ummm, i'm sensing a brain fart or 2 here

Glover was awful last season for the Tigers, hence why they did not keep him around. This was probably a smart move by the Nationals, if they were to have one this season.
