Nice of the gas station to give him the time off. Then again I guess they plenty of Hessmen around.

Hessman? Yes, Ma'am.

And the turnaround begins. Here we come, National League.

Hasn't been up since September of 2008. If Allah is kind, he'll be Met number 890. Current favorite to be Met 900: Russ Adams. Seriously, Hessman so belongs on this squad.

I read into this (because what else is there to do on offdays) that Manuel is staying. A guy that's pegged as a power bat? Seems exactly what he'd ask for. And he's desperate to give Wright a day off.

I think it's probable that Manuel will not be fired by tomorrow, but I certainly don't read that in the Hessman tea leaves. I mean, it's exactly what I'm asking for also, and I'm certainly not going to be in the dugout tomorrow. Hessman, for what it's worth, played the field last night for the first time since his injury.

Fits with Jerry's PH style too. Might want to let a guy get a little more up to speed defensively no? Turner can play third..

Christ, they call up Dr. Johnny Fever when everyone knows Venus Flytrap has all the talent. Waiting for pigs to fly now.

Sheesh, weren't folks decrying the lack of real depth at the corner infield spots? Hessman, according to reports, has played excellent defense this year. OE: But man, it's surely offense that we need.

Hessman would have probably been up a month ago if he hadn't gotten hurt. He's only played third and first this season (mostly third), but has experience nearly every place else. And he can hit. On the Barajas front, Ken Rosenthal is saying that the Red Sox offered Ramon Ramirez for Barajas before the injury. It was an intriguing offer if true.

They're going through catchers like Spinal Tap does drummers.

Seriously, Hessman so belongs on this squad. why, was he a serial killer in a former life?
