Reid Brignac Recalled from Durham; Also Todd Glaesmann Signs

Lancaster with the news, via Twitter:

tborays#Rays recalled Reid Brignac from Durham

Brignac figures to get some playing time in place of Jason Bartlett/Ben Zobrist and this means the Rays are back to 7 relievers. Since the playoff hopes are down already, it would be nice to see Brignac get in the lineup against most right-handed starters. Unlikely, but nice.

---

Lancaster also breaks the Glaesmann news with this link. The talking points: A) Over slot, B) Like Jeff Malm, he'll report to the GCL Rays for the final few weeks.

Glaesmann is another Texas A&M  commit who plays the outfield -- who hates us more at this point? LSU for Brignac/Hellickson, USC for T. Beckham/Malm, or TA&M for Rogers/Glaesmann? -- and has five-tool potential.

USC can't be that pissed

They had to know there was no chance whatsoever that Beckham was actually going to make it to USC.

Some could be interesting tid bits

- Bradford is ready whenever they need him ( when they get rid of a loogy)
- Burrell may be hitting the DL (Joyce time?)
- On MiLB.com, no team next to Beckham, usually means a promotion, does Charlotte have a new 19 year old SS on the way?

Why would Beckham be promoted? It's not like he's crushing BG.

Brad Ziegler had a scoreless inning streak. Brad Ziegler had not met BJ Upton.

WHY did we send Hughes over for Zaun?

Because he's not that good.

Well, Durham sure took a hit

Lost their SS and 1B, will prob lose their RF if PTB goes to the DL and of course, the negative value of Bennett.

You realize Hughes had a BABIP of .444 and a K-Rate of 31%, right?

Brad Ziegler had a scoreless inning streak. Brad Ziegler had not met BJ Upton.

I did not realize that, actually

and this PTB news blows, I dunno why we need 8 RP’s but Briggy may be a Bull again real soon

Ugh
tboraysSounds like a short-term call-up for Brignac. I’d guess Bradford takes his spot by Tues if Burrell OK

Give Bartlett and Zobrist some days off

or Gross, moving Ben to RF

Zobrist can sure use a break

Zobrist better in RF than the Gabes?

Briggy better at 2B then Zobie?

I know he has great D

and I know that Ben needs a game or 2 off
