Only this tiny bit for today, the Monday morning action for the next week. I started playing the week out, but there's too many games left for me to fight through it in the dead-tired state I am in right now. Should be posted tomorrow morning though...

Roster moves

When the Raccoons left down, not all of the litter managed to join: Dr. Padilla diagnosed Nick Lando with a broken claw and he was assigned to the DL instead. He’d be out for about six weeks.

The other departure was Doug Levis (.231, 13 HR, 52 RBI), who was traded to the Warriors with single-A INF/LF Andy Benton for right-hander Jon Craig (1-2, 3.57 ERA, 1 SV), who could be used as a starter, but was better employed in relief.

In a different deal, the Raccoons picked up an offer by the Gold Sox on a busy Monday and took on right-hander Terry Garrigan (1-1, 6.57 ERA) in exchange for AAA 2B Jose Brito. The 27-year-old Brito was a .301 hitter in the majors, much better in a way smaller sample size than his AAA track record. Garrigan had been a fairly steady Knights starter in the mid-30s, but had come apart recently and was a free agent after the season should we tire of him quickly.

To make numbers add up, the Raccoons sent Josh Rella (7.71 ERA) back to the Alley Cats while adding both Garrigan and Craig to the roster. We also added 1B Art Goetz to play first base full-time. Goetz had batted 3-for-9 with a homer in his brief cameo earlier this year.

We thus carried an extra pitcher as the week began, but the trade deadline was near, so who knows?
