Miles activated, Fox down

[jeffy]

As of late Tuesday night, Muskat says that Fox will be headed back to Iowa. I figured it would be Scales since Fox is performing at least offensively (hitting .417).

In Iowa on Monday night, Miles played at 3B and went 0-5, with 3 strikeouts, one of them with the bases loaded [img]style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/sad.gif[/img]

Fox will replace Scales or Blanco for the AL trip I would imagine. He just isn't that valuable to the team right now.

That was my thought, too.

[Coldneck]

I've been very impressed with Blanco's defense and surprised at his approach at the plate. He's much better than I thought he would be. I hope he still gets the majority of the playing time when Miles is called up. He is basically a younger and much better defensive version of Miles, which makes Miles' signing even dumber.

The AL games start Friday. Seems kind of strange to send Fox down if they're just going to call him back up again in a couple days. I figured they'd just send Scales down now since he's not all that valuable right now either, except that he can play 3B, but Fontenot is hitting nicely at the moment and should be getting the starts at 3B.

[Butcher]

I honestly forgot Miles was on the team.

What a pleasant surprise, eh?

[Coldneck]

Getting Miles back will be like trading for an expensive 25th man.

They probably wanted to get him some consistent ABs before Friday.

I thought of that right after I posted. Makes sense [img]style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/smile.gif[/img]

And don't we need to make another roster move soon when Harden comes back this weekend? Probably no sense in keeping an extra reliever at that point too.

A. Unless a position player goes on the DL, Fox cannot be recalled for 10 days.

B. I think the AL games that were referred to were the AL road games when we'll need a DH. Those games don't start until June 23.

i'm anxious to see what a healthy miles can do!!!!!!

Ahh, that makes even more sense. My brain is sloshed today. Running on 5 hours of sleep doesn't suit me well [img]style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/laugh.gif[/img]

Did Miles play better with our without the goatee?
