excellent. I was surprised he didn't make the 26 man roster. I guess they are tight on 40 man slots.

I suspect Yepez and Blankenhorn will get the bulk of the 1B time in Rochester, maybe splitting 1B and DH.

Alu / Call / Wood will be the regular OF with Young up, with Yepez and Blankenhorn splitting 1B/DH, Baker getting most reps at 2d, and Dunn / Cluff / Kieboom I guess splitting SS and 3rd.

sort of expected this eventually. Wonder what would have happened had he made the team out of camp instead of MBarnes or gotten the call instead of JBarnes when Garcia was IL'd. Ferrer's not close, so this leaves a hole for lefty depth.
