Unless somebody is hurtin' that we don't know about, there's not an obvious corresponding move. Maybe the A's are dealing for Locastro or Escobar.

Glad to see this!



Wonder what the corresponding move will be. Locastro? Butto gets a start, then back down?



OE: Edgy beat me to the question!

Re: The Baty Signal Goes Up

According to several reports, and I won't bother youse with details, but Baty

has been on fire and Escobar may be headed for a bench-ola role for a stint.

I suspected this when I saw he wasn't in the starting lineup today against a righty pitcher.

Or, as Jon Sterling might say, "This good move is brought to you by Bran Flakes".

Escobar forced this move as much as Baty did.

You can promote Vientos also as far as I am concerned and dump Locastro

Good for Eduardo. I hope Eduardo grabs the RH DH spot and runs with it!

I wonder how many people will get this reference to a movie from 85 years ago. I do, and I liked it. I'll probably be giving this cover a vote in November.

Along with a reference to a James Taylor single from 55 years ago, and a Civil War-era Walt Whitman line.

Good movie, haven't seen it in quite some time. My wife is a big

Katharine Hepburn fan and we probably have it on DVD somewheres.

It was from his beloved collection All About that Grass.

A lot of entertaining Twitter theories about why this hasn't been announced yet, but this hasn't been announced yet. Neither, most likely relatedly, has the lineup been posted.

Is there a possum in this press box, too?

Or just sloth?

Looks like it's Brett Baty and Edwin Uceta recalled from Syracuse, with José Butto sent down and Tim Locastro to the 10-Day IL with back spasms.

Locastro to the IL with back spasms to clear Baty space.
