Sleepy Harold

Avi with a nice knock there, c'mon Jose!

He didn't leave Palka in to play CF, which would've been hilariously entertaining.

I can't wait to see how this defensive alignment shakes out, maybe Davidson to 3rd & the pitcher hitting taking over for the DH? Omar or Kevan to the OF?

SORIA!!!

Palka time

Here it is.

Two promotions here, guessing Dunning news coming??

fingers crossed for good news here

Yeah he's nursing a sore groin according to the self-proclaimed Kanny beat writer Dan Victor (@slydanno70 on twitter).

Soria has looked very good, can see him being a nice 7/8th inning guy for a contender if he's moved around the deadline (if not sooner).

He's on the DL right now.

Call hits his first AA HR, Booker walks, has reached base 4 times tonight.

Here's an article about the swing change he's made...behind the paywall however.

Here it is.

Assigned to Kanny: JJ Muno (from B'Ham), Joe Mockbee (From WS), Drew Harrington (From AZL) Nolan Brown & Michael Hickman activated from DL http://www.milb.com/milb/stats/stats.jsp?t=l_trn&lid=116&sid=t487

http://www.milb.com/milb/stats/stats.jsp?t=l_trn&lid=122&sid=t580 The WS promotions are listed here...Tyler Johnson, Laz Rivera, Luis Gonzalez, Lincoln Henzman, LuBob, Blake Battenfield all assigned to WS, Joe Mockbee sent to Kanny.

Nice.

I'm a tad surprised that the Sox have out-sucked the Reds in this category, but yeah it's been less than ideal.

Yeah it's not just you.

A nice recap of the game here.
