Atkins called up, Stevens to Iowa - ruby23 - 07-29-2009
For why?

I think they just wanted a fresh arm. Stevens will be back.

Yes. Also, fresh arm or not, Ascanio not Atkins should have been called up. Atkins has been god awful. If they wanted a fresh arm, it should have been Ascanio up and Shark down.

Last I looked at Ascanio's stats, he had been struggling at AAA.

That too. And hasn't Atkins primarily been a SP? Unless we're going to ask him to spot start and spend only a few days in the pen, I don't get it.

Ascanio (3.16 era with a high 1.27 whip) isn't struggling nearly as much as Atkins (6.64 era with a lower whip around 1.44) this season.

Ascanio: 3.16 ERA, 1.27 WHIP, 47 K, 18 BB

Seems real strange to me.

Shark will go down when Ryan comes up I would think, that's actually the move I expected (although he can't really eat innings)

OK, that makes a little sense. So go with Atkins for about 2-3 days, then call up Ascanio to take his spot or something along those lines.
