Kent Mercker has been put on the DL this morning and this is the really bad part Mike Burns has been recalled from AAA.

why mike burns there has to be somebody else that we coulda called up
Ok, dumb question. Who decides who comes up? Narron or Krivsky?
You guys are fast....I just heard it...literally
I wonder how long they knew he was hurt...
I would think Krivsky makes that call but I believe he would consult with Narron beforehand along with the minor league people.

I was looking at the Bats minor league pitching staff yesterday and Burns along with Venafro appear to be the only ones that get anyone out.

The real question is what in the heck is wrong with Ryan Wagner?? They may have screwed this kid up by bringing him to the bigs way to quick
now that i look at the stats burns is the only one worth the call up other than venafro
Venafro has only pitched 7 innings though.
This is probably only temporay considering Milton will most likely be back next week...
Good point. When Milton comes back I hope Lizard stays up in Cincy. If there is no room for him in the rotation, let EZ work two inning stints in the bullpen. This could help the pen and give Lizard more exposure to major league hitters.
Burns or Rick White would depart as the move for Milton.
Lizard is major league ready IMO.
Burns?
Go Gators!
