As the Phillies pulled Bastardo back to their roster, the Pigs will activate Concepcion off of the DL.
Also of note.. Andy Tracy pulled himself from last night’s game after 1 at bat. Hitting around .200 all season, you can say slow starter all you want, this move makes any fan worried.. looking back a few number of years when John Kruk retired mid-game to end his career really makes me say Hmmm. I don’t see Andy leaving any time soon but this cannot be a good sign.

Think Andy Tracy is getting frustrated and may decide to retire from the game ? Its understandable, after 14 years of service.
I’m still trying to find a silver lining: Nice writeup on Chris Duffy in this morning’s paper:

I don’t think he’s the bad apple…
Vogelsong is a reliever ? what did I miss and who replaced him in the starting rotation ? Thanks !
looks like Duckworth gets the start tomorrow. Can’t really fault Huppert for trying some stuff: give Ducky a start, move Tracy to the three hole. Now, if someone would just walk up and kick Bocock in his Velendia, well, we might have something.
He’s a good shortstop.. I wonder if he’ll go below .100 this season?
I know. But Mazone’s out-hitting him at this juncture… 😉
Spotted in the papers: our ol’ buddy Cedrick Bowers called up to the Ahthaletics.
And, Jo-Jo Reyes, who started the other day in rehab for the Gwins, stays there despite being off the DL…no room on the big club.
