Rogers fractured his finger and will miss 5-6 weeks. Sam Bunn is due off the DL in 2 days so I am going to give Jose Nieves 2 starts to get his feet wet. He'll go back down when Bunn is activated. He is added to the 40 man (now at 38) and called up.

  • On Friday 39 year old 4 time Koufax winner Yaaqov Hysh tossed his 12th career SHO striking out 5 in a 2-hit 14-0 win over Columbus. He's 6-11 3.66 over 24 starts this year and he is the only pitcher in IBL history to strikeout 4000+ hitters. His 4336 strikeouts pace all-time leaderboard.
  • Also on Friday 2004 Koufax winner and 7 time gold-glove winner Rob Kilmer of Detroit announced his retirement, effective immediately. The 41 year old made just 2 starts this year before tearing his meniscus. He finishes his 17 year career 177-174 3.95 over 550 games. His 2582 strikeouts rank 7th all-time.

IRON PIG NEWS
  • Nashville 3B Jason Schwartz, who is destroying pitching for the Buccaneers, won the Short Season HR Derby. The 20 year old switch hitter is hitting .403-15-41 leading all three triple crown categories.
  • AAA OF Ricky Gutierrez went 11-23 HR 6 RBI to win AAA Western League POTW
  • A 5-2 week feels good this late. There are some concerns off the field and mainly in the coaching locker room. The staff is not getting along and it is spilling out. I never expect to hear anything out of the coaches room certainly nothing to the detriment of the club. Most of the unrest seems to be centered around Bench Coach Marco Delgado.
