Add Edwar to the List of Call-Ups

Last night we learned that Mike Dunn, Mark Melancon, Ramiro Pena, and Francisco Cervelli would be joining the Yankees. Today, Chad Jennings informs us that Edwar Ramirez will also be added to the roster.

In 29 games for SWB Ramirez is 1-5 with 4 saves and a 3.18 ERA. In 51 IP he's allowed 18 ER on 39 hits, he's walked 16 and struck out 62. Oppenents are hitting .205 against him.

Replacing them on the SWB Yanks roster will be RHP Humberto Sanchez, RHP Eric Wordekemper,
and OF Freddy Guzman. There are still two spots open on the SWB Yanks roster and I will update this post as soon as those players are identified.

Also, Mark Feinsand is reporting what Jennings said yesterday, that Shelley Duncan and Austin Jackson could join the Yankees once the Triple-A playoffs are over.

    Edwah Rameerez throws his changeup at 79 MILES PURR OWER!

    Suzyn is probably ecstatic about this move. I'm not. Too many walks. We might as well bring back Veras too.

    Edwar is horrible he wasn't even pitching that great at Scranton. Reading that he got called up ruined my day.

    Relax... He's just an extra arm. If he starts pitching the 8th inning, then complain.

    I think that the only reason Edwar was called up is because Scranton is going to be playing in the International League playoffs and don’t really want him

    I agree Sean. I believe Jennings said it was a possibility if they could find a spot on the 40-man roster.
