Today's Wounded; Today's Call-Ups
The damage from last night's 17-inning affair was plenty. Infielder Omar Infante reaggravated his strained groin early in Sunday's contest (after recently straining my groin I can tell you what a pain it is - I used to make fun of players with strained groins, not anymore). Jeff Bennett injured his right shoulder in Saturday's game and Manny Acosta strained his hamstring trying to leg out a bunt in the wee innings of yesterday's marathon.
The Braves recalled Jeff Francoeur from double-A Mississippi, of course I was puzzled by that earlier... still am. The team also recalled infielder Brent Lillibridge and called up for the first time as a Brave, RHP Vladimir Nunez, who last pitched in the majors in 2004 with Colorado. Don't look for Nunez to be anything too spectacular, he's one of those barely marginal major league players.

Can we ask Texas for Salty and Neftali Feliz back? They can keep Andrus and Harrison. Sounds fair to me.

Here's one for you...
I just found out – and it’s unconfirmed (ie, I’m telling you that I heard from someone who heard….) that Jonathan Schuerholz will be a shortstops coach for Rome, Danville, and the GCL Braves. That’s all I know for now. BIG news, eh?

If he were my dad.....
I’d be pitching a little snit fit that I wasn’t the, you know, manager of Rome or something! I wonder if such is not too far down the road for Junior. Was he a good fielder? I honestly don’t know – anybody know? Often the best coaches weren’t the best players, so maybe this will be good…?...

No idea, but here's the quote from the AJC
“Jeff Francoeur flew to rejoin the Braves Monday evening, relieved and happy. After three days of a minor- league stint in AA Mississippi, he was also ready to play.
‘Even though it’s only been three days, I feel like a new guy,” Francoeur told the Journal-Constitution by phone during a layover in Chicago. “I was hoping to get there before the game. But now I’m just excited to be there and be with the guys. The only thing is, I have no clothes.’”
So if he gets to the stadium, he will be naked.

Moyer's slightly different
He goes from 75 down to 64. He gets even slower, than the range that Campillo hangs around. So when Moyer does crank it to 83, it has more meaning.
I make a lot of comparisons to Villarreal to Campillo- there was a honeymoon period where Oscar was excellent, but then the scouts began to pick and figure, and Oscar stopped being effective. Based on what I’ve seen the last few starts, I fear that it’s happening to Campillo.
