Julio Signed Orvella Released

MLB TAMPA BAY RAYS: Agreed to terms with pitcher Jorge Julio and assigned him to Durham (Int.); released pitcher Chad Orvella.

 

Anyone besides me find this a little odd. I know Orvella has had some injury issues but he still has pretty good stuff and Jorge Julio is awful. I hope this isn't a precursor to Julio being added to our bullpen. I have a bad feeling this is just another guy that will get a chance before Winston Abreu.

You have my sympathies

Hopefully he’s just being signed as filler for the Durham roster. You don’t want him anywhere near Tampa Bay.

What is this organizational obsession with Brewers castoffs, anyway? The Balfour-type lightning isn’t going to go zzzt zzzt twice with what the Rays have been picking up after.

Gross and Dillon have been good little pick ups.

The Brewers have had a lot of talent over the last few years and don’t seem to properly evaluate it… for instance, sitting Gross for Kapler/Gwynn.
