Rumor is Gomes and Renteria are no longer with the team. todd Frazier is called up, supposedly, along with pitcher Matt Maloney.
No official announcement yet, though.
Nice to see Todd Frazier make his debut tonight. I'm sure his teammates won't let him forget how he threw his bat into the camera well on the first big league pitch he ever saw!
