At least if he's on the bench, KC doesn't automatically spot the other team 8 runs.

He won't be going to Omaha.

My guess is if/when Lima gets shelled today, he'll go the same route as Marerro. Designated for Assignment.

Although an outright release wouldn't surprise me either.

I think Morrero was as much as a problem with his mouth and attitide as he was with hit .150 batting average.

Trading one of the teams highest players for a 25 year old single A utility infielder, and continuing to pay most of his salary shows how bad they wanted his sorry azz out of here.

Yep, that's my understanding of that situation as well.

But Lima was brought back to provide veteran leadership, and blowing 5 runs leads every start isn't a "quality" I want the young guys on the staff to pick up.

It was either that or pay all of his salary and get absolutely nothing return.
