Phillip Humber should be among the wounded there, as he's on the 40 by virtue of his contract, but I don't know where my photo of him is.

Why is a Mexican League refugee like Urdaneta on the 40?

]Why is a Mexican League refugee like Urdaneta on the 40?

You know I have absolutly no idea who this fella is, Gerald Williams just looks happy to be on a roster.

[Guest Johnny Dickshot]

I have no idea who Urdaneta is or where he came from.

[Vic Sage]

Urdaneta, apparently, is one of the members of the Dumbo Squad, along with Keppel, Looper, Cairo and Woodward.

So, he probably blew here on a strong gust of wind.

[seawolf17]

They signed Urdaneta a few weeks ago out of the Mexican League. It was noted [url=http://cybermessageboard.ehost.com/getalife/viewtopic.php?t=174&start=40]here[/url] at that time that he is a holder of one of the single worst career major league pitching lines ever:

0 IP, 5 H, 1 BB, 6 R, 6 ER, 6 BFP

Six batters, six baserunners, six runs. Ugly.

In fact, JD was the one who posted the news, so it's funny that he's completely forgotten poor Lido.

[Guest Johnny Dickshot]

Now I remember. Y is he on the 40 I wonder... tho there's prolly an obvious explanation for that too that I already found out and since forgot

[Valadius]

Jacobs is there twice.

[Guest Edgy DC]

Well, that's not right. We only need one of him.

Never mind.

[Valadius]

Lino Urdaneta, mystery man, has been released.

[seawolf17]

I believe I saw Urdaneta's name on a list of Mets minor-leaguers who have had or are about to have Tommy John surgery, FWIW.

[Guest Giant Squidlike Creature]

How many of these things do we have lingering around here anyhow?

[Guest Edgy DC]

You can retire this, t'anks. The 25 and the 40 will be covered by one thread.

[MFS62]

If this was retired, then why did it pop up again on page 1?
Does that happen when someone reads it, whether they respond to it or not?

EDIT: oops, just noticed Edgy's last post was dated today.
Answered my own question.
