Well that's one way to resolve this issue.
I'm not a huge Edmonds fan but this could help if Bruce and Stubbs don't better in august

Like it. I actually wondered if we might be interested in Edmonds at the deadline. Experienced lefty bat on the bench....probably better in that role than Dickerson.
I'd rather have Edmonds over Dickerson in a big spot, so I get the move. Obviously they still are all in on Stubbs and Heisey long term, which is really good.
Why not?!
This is a fantastic move, in my opinion. Experienced, quality left-handed hitter off the bench to fill in some for Stubbs? I like it.

well that's a tad unexpected.
I'm okay with it, but surprised. Edmonds should help down the stretch.
It is on the whole probable that we continually dream, but that consciousness makes such a noise that we do not hear it. Carl Jung.
An outfielder will have to go from the 25 to make room. Probably Nix, I would guess.
Bottom line...big game late in the year/post-season and we need a pinch hitter...do you want Dickerson or Edmonds? I'd take the vet.
So Dickerson made it through waivers?

That was my thinking as well. But that was likely to happen if they brought up Dickerson.

Also, somewhere George Grande needs to change his shorts.
