2008 25-Man Roster

[Guest Rockin' Doc]

Nice update. Adding the list of Zephyrs at the end is a nice touch.

One corerecrtion for the future, Ryan Church is currently listed as a infielder on the 40 man roster sheet.

Catchers	Outfielders
Promoted from Norfolk	Added to 15-Day DL	Moved from Infield Contingent
Cancel	Alou	Anderson

OK, the leftfielder goes back on the DL, because, for the second time in short timespan, they rushed a hitter back from injury. They again promote a third catcher instead of an outfielder/firstbaseman/hitter because... I dunno. Rather than go for Casanova, they go for Cancel, who had been sent down recently enough that they do not permit themselves to make Alou's assignment retroactive. Because... I dunno.

They must have their reasons. I'd like to hear them. Catcher depth is not our problem.

Nixon	Aguila

I've got nothing against three catchers per se, as long as (1) one of them is a lefty (check), (2) one of them plays another position, preferably not just first base (no check), and (3) one of them hits as well as someone who regularly plays another position (not necessarily the one who plays another position) (no check).

One check in three. No good. I'll take Stearns and Hodges and Trevi�o (I even recall a game where all three were in the same starting lineup), but I Schneider-Castro-Cancel, not so much.

Nicely done AG/DC. I like having the minor league rosters there, too!

[Benjamin Grimm]

It looks like Andy Phillips has replaced Robinson Cancel on the 25.

The roster on Mets.com doesn't show Andy with a uniform number, but Yahoo.com lists him wearing number 76.

[Guest AG/DC]

OK, brace yourself for a data dump.

Did Nixon really hurt himself? What happened? Or is it just a bullshit place to stash him as we brace for Concussion Number Three? (<-- band name?)

Kind of, sort of. Word is that he "tweaked" something in his groin on Saturday.

[stevejrogers]

Molina turned into Aaron Heilman! =

[Guest AG/DC]

Fix't.

Yeah, I'm guessing Nixon was impeached from the roster on trumped-up charges.

[Gwreck]

Carlos Muniz was sent down to make room for John Maine.
