Claggett Headed To Toronto, Ransom Headed Out

UPDATE 3:47 p.m.: Sweeny Murti just posted on his Twitter page that Cody Ransom is "out."

George A. King III is reporting that "Right-handed reliever Anthony Claggett is expected to join the Yankees tonight in time for their game against the Blue Jays at Rogers Centre."

The 25-year-old was 4-6 with a 3.02 ERA in 32 games (two starts) for the SWB Yanks. In 59.2 innings allowed 20 ER on 55 hits, walked 24, struck out 34, and opponents were batting .248 against him.

He pitched in one game for the Yanks this year back on April 18th in the Bronx against the Indians and got lit up for 8 ER on 9 hits in just 1.2 innings pitched.

The question now is who will get sent down or DFA, will it be Cody Ransom? I have to assume it will be, but the Yankees have surprised me before.

Good move by the yanks if Mitre cant get deep into the game. Hopefully Clagget can eat up some innings. You dont want to overwork your bullpen before the boston series. If I was Girardi I would not use Hughes or Rivera tonight even in a save situation. If you lose tonight you lose. But you need to have both Rivera and Hughes available for all 4 games against Boston.

And its great having Singleton do the play by play. Kay is getting way too annoying to listen too. He is too obsessed with Chamberlain and Hughes velocity. And he is still describing everything like he is on the radio.

Thank God Ransom is gone. Now the we can actually have 9 hitters when he plays instead of 8.

I heard Melvin Mora may be available, how about bringing him in through a waiver trade to come up off the bench and spare some players.
