DiFielece knew how to lead the young pitchers. I wish they would of kept him.

Johnson designated for assignment to make room for Gross

Interesting. I figured it would be Haynes

I assume they thought Gross and Johnson were pretty much the same player, but to keep Haynes.

So let me get this straight instead of sending down below average talent to get someone with very high potential they let the guy who needs more work stay up?

Its all too confusing. There has to be more to it.

Well part of it is that Johnson had that bone decease and wasn't quite in playing shape yet. Also, Johnson is a lesser version of Floyd and he will be back soon. I think when Kaz and Garza come back you will see Haynes gone and Ruggiano sent down

Johnson made it through waivers and is now in Durham. I like it, he will get ABs and maybe get called up in the future if we have an injury
