An adjustment



The exciting arrival of Mallex Smith came to a disappointing conclusion today when he was sent down to Tacoma.  UW phenom Braden Bishop was called up to replace him, temporarily.  The Ms had no choice as Smith's feeble performance at the plate was affecting his fielding.  I'm not sure I buy that.  Even before Smith's batting began to slump I wondered about his fielding... good range, bad hands.  He posted good batting numbers in Tampa, he should be able to get his feet on the ground away from the stress of living up to the expectations  of being a key part of "the rebuild."  But as Brock and Salk put it: good news, bad news?  Plenty bad from my perspective.
