who gets bumped on tuesday

[chibears55]

with matt garza scheduled to come off the DL on tuesday and carlos villanueva headed to the bullpen , who gets moved off the roster ?

marmol ? camp ? takahashi ? Loe ? rondon ?


might be too early for a marmol deal although i saw reports that the braves are looking outside for a reliever..

camp or loe is a good bet to get released and if unclaimed could sit in IOWA..

takahashi might be safe for now, being a lefty and only one they have besides russell..

rondon they just might stick with because of age and potential..



my guess is either camp or loe gets released and then if unclaimed reassigned to IOWA ( if they accept )..

Loe was already released. Bowden is being DFA'd according to most reports.

Cubs To Designate Michael Bowden For Assignment
By Charlie Wilmoth [May 19, 2013 at 5:07pm CST]
The Cubs will designate Michael Bowden for assignment, Bruce Miles of the Daily Herald reports (on Twitter). The move clears space on the Cubs' active roster for Matt Garza, who had been out with a strained lat. Garza's return will bump Carlos Villanueva to the Cubs' bullpen, which is why the Cubs need to jettison a reliever.

Bowden, 26, has pitched in 14 games out of the Cubs' bullpen in 2013, with a 3.78 ERA, 3.8 K/9 and 2.7 BB/9. In parts of six seasons with the Cubs and Red Sox, he has a 4.47 ERA with 6.7 K/9 and 3.5 BB/9.

Reminds me of a 63' Volkswagen I used to own.

Or if he had the number "53", he wood look like "Herbie the love bug" with its doors open.
