Journeyman skinny Dominican righthander, recently released by Dodgers.

Assigned to Buffalo I guess as insurance for Dickey and Takahashi, now that they look more or less like regulars.

I was thinking Russ Ortiz and not Ramon.

Isn't he with Chicago, tearing it up?

OE: Nope. That's Carlos Silva.

[Farmer Ted]

The players told management to get some quality arms. Done.

In my mind Russ Ortiz disappeared but I see he too is with the Dodgers.

Joins Fernando Martinez to make a pair of Carribbean Series MVPs on Buffalo.

Done and done.
Championship won.
Reyes and Pagan runnin like bullets out of a gun.
Mr. Wright's gonna drive in another run.
And this is a move in the right di-rec-tion.


Hmmm, there's a song there.

How is it a player named Junior Ortiz is older than all these other Ortizes?

I have a feeling this is less a Mets move than a Buffalo move. Team's sort of been reeling since Dickey, Carter, Feliciano, etc. were all called up. Now with Parnell up and Mejia in Bingo instead of Buffalo, they need some sort of arms out there.
