Added to the 40 man

He was added to the active MLB roster.

They purchased it is another way of saying they bought his Major League contract since they get a higher pay being on the 40-man roster

I figured this was coming. He’s been on an upswing at Columbus.

Does Zimmer push Lonnie back to RF?

Cleveland fans, would Zimmer be getting the call over Naquin even if the latter weren’t injured? Has Naquin fallen out of favor that much in Cleveland?
EonADS
It’s not so much that he’s out of favor as the Indians staff probably thinks he needs to figure out his issues with high fastballs, and get some more reps in centerfield. Zimmer’s surprisingly the more stable of the two. Naquin will be back eventually.

Bradley Zimmer is twice as tall and half as wide as his namesake Don.

Zimmer is in the lineup today for the Tribe!

And playing CF. Makes sense, since Lonnie is better in RF.

Martinez is gone, hopefully Almonte is right behind him. Zimmer has been doing well at AAA but I’m still surprised they went to him. I can see him struggle a bit, go down and when he returns he sticks forever.

If he continues like he did tonight, he won’t be in Cleveland long.

Whifff…whifff…whifff…rough debut.

Followed up with a 2-4 and HR day.

Yep, he looked a bit more relaxed today.
