Brian "The Hebrew Hammer" Horwitz down, Eugenio Velez up.
Good move for Horwitz: more playing time for him.
I'm a bit torn about Velez. He's raking in AAA to the tune of .310/.372/.502, but he's been caught stealing 9 times out of 22. As if we haven't seen enough pickoffs already.
Another little dilemma: where is he going to play? Burriss, Durham, and to a lesser extent, Denker, share time at second already. The outfield, where the Grizzlies have been working out Velez, is filled up, which will be yet another problem when Dave Roberts makes his return.
Update: Andrew Baggarly speculates about a Ray Durham trade in the works.
