sorry
Brayan Pena must have tried to pull rank to keep his spot

This Is A
Social experiment to see if a Hawaiian and a Cuban can peacefully co-exist in a confined space.
I used to be an A's fan until they left town and got good.

Nice
Now the test to see how we use him
for when I'm too lazy to come here, http://twitter.com/AtTheWall

Are we still potentially showcasing JoGui
for a possible waiver trade?
Chaim Mattis Keller New York City's # 1 Royals fan!
Probably.
Nevermind the fact that the Yankees liked the idea of Guillen until they saw him actually playing RF, then they wanted nothing to do with him.
Hopefully Kila at DH today. I can deal with Guillen in RF for that. Maier in CF, Gordon in LF.
SERIOUSLY!??!
That is messed up. Blanco sucks. Guillen sucks. Gordon shouldn’t suck, but kind of does. Kila may suck, but give him chance. This team can be hard to root for.
I’m going running.
I'm going to wait until Monday to reserve judgement
You know how Sunday games are always weird in manager’s minds anyways
Maybe Kila is resting because he's jet-lagged

Delta Has A
Non-stop MEM/MCI flight at 750PM; all the others connect through ATL, which does make a fairly grueling flight.

BTW, I don't know if anyone else can see the ad, but....
Redskins Club Seats? I’m totally in! I live in KC, but I’ll definitely fly to DC for Redskins games!
Great step....but now he has to play and play very often
Calling him up to sit him on the bench would be a complete waste. Let’s see how Dayned Moorost handles this.

Today’s starters: Getz 4; JK 2; Butler 3; Guillen DH; Betemit 5; Gordo 7; Maier 9; Betancourt 6; newcomer Blanco 8; Chen on the hill.
Gordon can't bat in the same spot for 2 days in a row

ARE we still showcasing JoGui?
That would make lineups like this a little easier to bear, anyway.
Place witty signature here.
Bittersweet
I did want to see Blanco for myself, particularly his defense in CF, and it’s great that Kila is back on the roster. But for God’s sake, get that man some ABs. I don’t care if you have him starting at catcher. Get it done, Yost.
SS!

Agree with sterlingice
Many managers are loathe to play a player when he is first called up, choosing instead to let him sit a game and take it all in. I can wait until Monday to reserve judgment too, I guess.
Wait – Chavez pitched today, and Blanco played as well, so this theory is out the window.

According to Nate Bukaty, Kila arrived at the stadium with < 1hr. to go until first pitch.
That may have something to do with it.
But my money is on Yost/Moore just not committing to playing him as much as we’ll want them to.
