It's that time of the week again, Folks, when we review the last seven days worth of transactions in a slightly irreverent way. If you tend to roll your eyes and groan at your dad's stupid jokes, you probably won't want to read any further...
Most of these folks are headed back to the minor leagues so you may miss the fun if you are unfamiliar with the young players. Oh well. It's too late to turn back now. Here in Maine, the snow must go on.
- It wasn't an Easely decision to make for the Diamondbacks, but they sent their catcher, Ed, back to the minors.
- Another Diamondback, Brooks Brown, was sent down stream and went to the minors.
- Rockies catcher, Rosario, said he was Wilin to polish his skills further in the minors. But he is hoping for a chance in the majors soon.
- Oakland's Chris Carter couldn't catch a pass to the big league club and is headed to the minors.
- Former closer, Eric, said: "Gagne with a spoon, I'm a free agent again," after the Brewers released him.
- Ross, the Nationals hurler, is going to be in Detwiler he toils some more in the minor leagues.
- Cubs' pitcher, Brian Schlitter threw his glove at the ....uhh...toilet...when told he didn't make the team.
- The Cubs also signed a German to a minor league contract. Esteban is hoping that the chance will be his autobahn back to the majors.
- The Cubs also sent outfielder, Richie Robnett to AAA.com.
- Detroit pitcher, Rudy Darrow, was hoping that the jury was still out on his status, but he got the verdict that he was sent down.
- Detroit also had a pitcher named Jon Kibler who was impressive in bits, but the front office decided that Kibler in bits wasn't enough and demoted him.
- The fan doesn't understand it, but that pitcher named Wells Kips getting offers to pitch despite his history. This time, he signed with the Nationals with a minor league contract.
- When the rolls are called up Yonder, Alonso won't be there. The Reds pitcher was demoted.
- Too bad Chad Reineke wasn't named, "Meineke," because then he would have had options and his tailpipe wouldn't have been kicked to the minors.
- The Nationals didn't tell Brian a Brownlie or a whitelie and told him he needed to get better with more time in the minors.
- The Nationals' Destin Hood wasn't Destined to make the team. He got sent down.
- Matt Whitney didn't cotton to the idea that he has to go back to the minors. But he doesn't have a choice.
And there it is. Another day, another dollop of transactions in the FanDome.
