Adopted - Steve Schmoll

[Guest ScarletKnight41]

The sidearm throwing righty was acquired along with Duaner Sanchez in exchange for Jae Seo last January. I'm not sure what kind of an arm he has, but I love the fact that he has spent offseasons conducting anti-AIDS research. I'm going to start keeping an eye on this youngster.

[Guest Edgy DC]

Two prospects you've adopted after they've made their big-league debut.

[Guest ScarletKnight41]

No - I adopted Joe Hietpas on the old board when he was still with Binghamton.

[Guest Edgy DC]

I'm very sorry and type corrected.

[Guest ScarletKnight41]

Apology accepted.

[Guest Edgy DC]

I saw a friend today who is at the NIH working on the AIDS vaccine. I didn't get a chance to ask him if he knows the Schmoller.

[Guest ScarletKnight41]

You shoulda!

On the DL

It doesn't look like we'll be seeing Schmoll this September - he just went on the disabled list with some sort of leg injury

[Guest ScarletKnight41]

It was a hamstring problem. And Steve is on the 60-day DL as a result of it.

We'll see him in the spring.

Dang

The Mets claimed pitcher Marcos Carvajal on waivers this morning from the Tampa Bay Devil Rays. To make room on the 40-man roster, reliever Steve Schmoll was designated for assignment.

[Guest ScarletKnight41]

Steve cleared waivers, and he'll be a Zephyr this year.

[Guest themetfairy]

Steve is now in the Washington Senators organization.
