For some reason I thought he was right handed, but if not, that solves the mystery.

He is, and you're right, he hasn't thrown in a while.
You saw Sasquatch, or in Ohio it is known as Grassman, or more precisely Jeremy Horst
Hugs, smiling, and interactive Twitter accounts, don't mean winning baseball. Until this community understands that we are cursed to relive the madness.
Dontrelle's tweets indicate he was in Louisville yesterday.
The offense in Baltimore stands to get a boost with Gomes or whoever else is the DH and with the SS hitting 9th to possibly do some table-setting for the top of the order.
I would love to call up Yonder to DH for the next 6 games. Him or Sappelt.
Zack Cozart is in the lineup and leading off tonight for Louisville at home vs. Pawtucket; Alonso is hitting sixth.
Some folks believe Horst doesn't exist. But we now have evidence of a recent sighting.
Eric Stratton, Rush Chairman. Damn glad to meet ya.
He wouldn't be called up today anyhow. They don't call guys up on off-days, typically, especially if the person being replaced is going to be released or designated for assignment (because they still have to continue paying those players and the replacement would accrue service time if they're called up on an off-day).
So if Cozart were to come up tomorrow, it wouldn't happen until tomorrow afternoon (though he'd be told about it tonight so he can join the team in the morning).

Thanks, it was Horst.
I wrote the post in a muddy way, but I meant to ask about Dontrelle and the mystery pitchers as two seperate points. I could tell it wasn't Dontrelle or Chapman, but I couldn't think of another lefty who it would have been.
regarding Fay for a sec...
His blog is supposed to be different from his articles, but as both are hosted and presented on the same website, there really IS NO DIFFERENCE between his articles and his blog. Same person, same company, same topics. That is what makes his blog so frustrating. I think if he took the blog to an independent third party source, say a free one like blogspot, people could better differentiate between his opinions and when he's reporting.
just my 2 cents.
Dubito Ergo Cogito Ergo Sum.
It doesn't help that Fay and the other Reds beat writers are brutal in general. I'm better than them.
Be careful might dislocate your elbow patting your back like that...
In general they are brutal as far as their personalities and overall style. But, Fay isn't one to spread false rumors. He can't spell check to save his life, but he is usually the most accurate writer on the beat.

But still, Fay honestly put four pages of "omg Cozart is coming up" on here because he "sense" that Cozart would get called up because how the team was playing. I guess that means he hasn't been paying attention most of the season because he would have made that assertion over a month ago. And to me, Ramsey gives the best information, despite all the random tweets. They just all seem that they just got the job and it happened to be in baseball. It doesn't seem natural for them. Maybe that's just me.
I might be the only one here that likes Fay.
It's got to be extremely difficult to write a blog about the Reds and try to come up with fresh material everyday. My guess is that Fay had something substantial to base his "Feeling" on.. Maybe it was just someone in the organization saying "maybe".
He has not spread many false rumors in his history.
