The latest players to get outrighted to Triple-A…
- The Braves outrighted left-hander Dustin Richardson to Triple-A after he cleared waivers, according to David O'Brien of the Atlanta Journal-Constitution (on Twitter). Richardson, 27, has spent the season at Triple-A, where he has a 4.79 ERA with 9.3 K/9 and 6.1 BB/9 in 62 innings.
- The Rangers announced that they outrighted Omar Quintanilla to Triple-A (Twitter link). The 29-year-old has spent most of the season at Round Rock , where he has a .298/.369/.452 line in 234 plate appearances.
- Fred Lewis cleared waivers and the Reds outrighted him to Triple-A, according to MLB.com's Mark Sheldon. Lewis has a .230/.321/.317 line since signing a $900K deal with the Reds in January. He has played both corner outfield positions and spent time on the disabled list with a strained right oblique muscle.
You know you’ve lost it when even Dusty Baker gives up on you, Fast Freddy.
I take him over Rowand.
Good riddance
I am kinda surprised at this.. Not because of how well he has played cause honestly he has pretty much sucked. Had some good key hits here and there but overall not what I thought we would get out of him.
Baker seemed to play him all the time. My guess is with Heisey back he will get most of the time in LF. Alonso will get time in LF and a rare game off for Votto at 1st
Finally Quintanilla gets sent down. No excuse having a guy with a .050 batting average (no matter how big or small the sample size) on your big league roster.
