P-Mac Called Up
BREAKING NEWS: Former BayBear McAnuly Called Up to Replace Bowen
Thats right folks, P-Mac is going back to San Diego. In today's Padres game, catcher Rob Bowen injured his hand when a bat came back and hit him on his hand. He was immediately placed on the 15-day DL after it was determined that he suffered a partially dislocated thumb on his catching hand. First baseman Paul McAnuly, who played with the BayBears and enjoyed a 7 game stint with the Padres last year, will be taking Bowen's place on the roster. With the Beavers this year, McAnulty is batting .278 with 8 HR, 19 RBI, and an impressive .972 OPS.
In other transaction news, pitcher Dewon Brazelton was demoted to Triple-A Portland after Thursday's lackluster outing in which he failed to record an out in relief of Jake Peavy.
