Sean Burnett Up, Navarro down.

[rafibomb]

@Alden_Gonzalez: "As expected, LHRP Sean Burnett activated off the DL. Efren Navarro optioned to Triple-A. #Angels"

 

Thought this deserved it's own thread because we all thought this would never happen.

 

Other notable minor league transactions: 

- Nick Maronde sent down to AA Arkansas

- Brandon Sisk to AAA Salt Lake

This is truly incredible.  Hopefully it's not windy tonight in Anaheim.  Wouldn't want a slight breeze to take him out again.  

[tdawg87]

Honestly this was bound to happen regardless once Hamilton gets back.

I think it's a good thing. This team has outfield depth balls deep.

Feeling good about this team. Hopefully he can pitch like he did several years ago.

word.

[Blarg]

In his 11 games Navarro put up a very respectable line of .310/.375/.483/.858

[fan_since79]

Burnett ready to go?!?!

 

What happened to the month he was supposed to spend in rehab?

 

I hope they're not rushing him back too soon.

[gotbeer]

Wait, wasn't Navarro doing well?  Shouldn't someone else be sent down?

[Butcher'd]

I would have sent down Cron instead of Navarro. Navarro is better defensively, more versatile, and has a better understanding of the strike zone.

Cron is likely gone on Monday when Hamilton get's back.

It might be Green

[Taylor]

This should be getting more attention.

[TroutBaseball]

Hopefully he can PITCH. (full stop)

It might be Green

Highly doubtful.

Green is much more versatile and is a much better hitter.

Are people just accepting the fact that Ibanez isn't going to be released or something?

 

Dude is hitting .149. cmon now.

No way Ibanez gets the axe, because MIKE FN SCIOSCIA is the manager.

He could be hitting -.049

No way that was ever going to happen

BurnettCy looked pretty good tonight.

[Homebrewer]

There is NO REASON to keep Ibanez on this team. Navarro should stay and DH. Keeping Ibanez is all Scioscia.....

[stormngt]

Nice logic since personal moves are all Dipoto. If you don't like Ibanez on the team than put blame where it appropriately belongs.

yeah, it's dipoto. he's already said it publicly.

That woudl be dumb. Green is better overall offensively and can play 2B, 3B, OF. Cron plays 1B not particularly well, certainly worse than Calhoun.
