Notes:

  • After coming of the DL on the 6th of May, infielder Wilson Betemit was placed back on it after pulling his hamstring legging out a double against the Tigers on May 10.  Alberto Gonzalez was called back-up to take his spot on the roster.
  • Jonathan Albaladejo sprained the ulnar collateral ligament and strained the posterial capsule of his right elbow. The feeling is he won’t need surgery, but he may not be on the mound anytime soon.  Chris Britton returned to the major league club on May 10, a day after having been sent down to Triple-A.
  • Kei Igawa was called up to start against the Tigers on May 9th and got shelled.  He’ll be sent back down when Ian Kennedy is recalled to start against the Rays on May 15.

Remember, the Transaction Report will be posted every Monday or Tuesday of each week.
