On June 5th the Cleveland Indians signed LHP Mike Gosling (pictured to the left sporting a huge boner) to a Minor League contract just a few days after the 28 year old was released from the Minnesota Twins. He had a 7-1 record with a 4.37 ERA in 21 appearances at Triple A Rochester this year. Since being in Columbus he has thrown 8 innings giving up one run and striking out eight. With this in mind, it did not take the Tribe long to recall the newly acquired lefty as the Wahoo's bullpen is, to put it nicely, struggling and in need of a makeover. This just goes to prove my point in the last post that we really have nobody that is ready to be called up. I guess we have resorted to picking up some has been's (Vizcaino) and now this guy named Gosling.
Greg Aquino was optioned back to Triple A Columbus in the move to bring up "The Goose". There is only one team I would even consider putting Aquino on right now and it is this. I hope he takes his crooked hat back down to Columbus and figures it out.
