Jorge Cantu getting promoted - Per C. Trent

From C. Trent.

Quote:
Anyway, have been told that Jorge Cantu is getting called up. Not sure whose spot he would be taking, but it could be Bellhorn or something else is up. Will let you know as soon as possible.

Re: Cantu getting promoted

Instead of 3 catchers it'll be 3 1st basemen?

Re: Cantu getting promoted

You would think this means Conine has been dealt.

Re: Cantu getting promoted

Bellhorn was just as much a disaster at the IF spots as Cantu will be, so maybe it's that.

Got to be either Bellhorn or Conine.

Re: Cantu getting promoted

it would really only make sense if Conine goes because otherwise he'll be just a PH.

Which may be slightly better than the spork and the butter knife we've used so far this season on the bench.
