Gimenez To Cleveland?

May 31, 2009
In Saturday night's game, Triple-A Columbus catcher Chris Gimenez was a late scratch from the lineup because of a possible looming callup to Cleveland. While he was held out of the game, he did actually appear in the game late because starting catcher Wyatt Toregas was ejected from the game.

This is an interesting move. People will point to the Victor Martinez injury suffered in the game on Saturday night, but that injury occurred AFTER Gimenez was already scratched from the lineup. Could a possible trade of Kelly Shoppach be in the works? Or Gimenez himself? We'll see probably in the next 24 hours.

Also, I will not be in Columbus on Sunday as a family emergency will prevent that from happening. My 5-year old son touched a hot grill with both hands at a party in a park on Saturday afternoon that resulted in a three hour trip to the emergecy room and second degree burns all over both of the palm side of his hands. He's doing well though, and he and I will follow the Columbus game on-line tomorrow likely on the couch or in his bed. He was so excited to go too, as he has become quite the baseball nut this year!
