The Twins are likely to be without Taylor Rogers and Randy Dobnak for the rest of the season, per MLB.com’s Do-Hyoung Park (via Twitter). Rogers has missed most of the second half after spraining a finger at the end of July. Before the injury, Rogers was again effective for the Twinkies, appearing 40 times and posting a 3.35 ERA with nine saves and eight holds, though he does have four blown saves as well. Dobnak has essentially been a non-contributor. He went on the injured list with a finger sprain on June 21, and he struggled to open the year.
Let’s check on a couple of roster moves made early on Saturday…
-
- The Rockies have reinstated Robert Stephenson from the paternity list and optioned Ben Bowden to Triple-A, per the team. The 26-year-old Bowden has a 6.56 ERA/4.84 FIP in 35 2/3 innings. Stephenson has been a productive member of the Rockies’ bullpen, tossing 38 1/3 innings with a 3.76 ERA/4.02 FIP.
- The Orioles have recalled Dean Kremer from Triple-A, per Roch Kubatko of MASNsports.com (via Twitter). Kremer joins the club as their 29th man for today’s twin bill against the Blue Jays. Kremer will make his 13th start of the season and look to improve upon a 7.25 ERA/6.52 FIP.
- The Yankees outrighted Jonathan Davis to Triple-A today, per the team. Davis has been an extra man in the Yankees outfield, appearing in just 12 games after being claimed off waivers from the Blue Jays.
Thoughts and prayers for a speedy recovery.
For those who didn’t like FPGs: Prayers and thoughts for a speedy recovery.
Dean Kremer has the best lettuce in the league behind Hunter Harvey
“effective” seems like a massive understatement for Rogers
“…per MLB.com’s Do-Hyoung Park (via Twitter)”
Was he that South Korean first baseman the Twins signed that completely sucked, and they ended up releasing him? Nice to see he has another baseball job now.
Byung-Ho Park actually continues to play in the KBO. Park was a total bust for the Twins as was the other slugging First Baseman that was brought over from the KBO Dae-Ho Lee of the Mariners who also continues to put up solid numbers in the KBO
Twinkies!!! Hahahahahahaha Have the whole team dressed as twinkies.
Seems like Korn’s fall tour can go on as planned now that Jonathan Davis is available again.
Yankees really don’t know how to evaluate talent !
Johnathan Davis from “Korn” has a higher batting average than Johnathan Davis on the Yankees.
Velazquez was sent down clearing space for Schmidt.
