Monday's Recrap: Sanchez Fills The Guthrie Role To Perfection
Lineups
Colorado Rockies (36-59)
- Dexter Fowler (CF)
- Marco Scutaro (2B)
- Carlos Gonzalez (LF)
- Michael Cuddyer (1B)
- Andrew Brown (RF)
- Wilin Rosario (C)
- Josh Rutledge (SS)
- D.J. LeMahieu (3B)
- Edwar Cabrera (P)
Roster move: To make room for Cabrera, Jason Giambi was placed on the disabled list with what the Rockies are calling "viral syndrome" or a "viral infection." Obviously we're pulling for improved health for Giambi as quickly as possible, but on the baseball side of things this means the Rockies won't be able to move him before the July 31 deadline. There's still a decent chance they'll be to do so in August, but if he's not on the field teams will likely look elsewhere for their bench bat.
Arizona Diamondbacks (48-48)
- Willie Bloomquist (3B)
- Aaron Hill (2B)
- Jason Kubel (LF)
- Paul Goldschmidt (1B)
- Justin Upton (RF)
- Miguel Montero (C)
- Chris Young (CF)
- Stephen Drew (SS)
- Joe Saunders (P)
The D-Backs made a huge mistake today designating Ryan Roberts for assignment. They should have allowed him to kill the Rockies for two more games (you know he would have) and then DFAed him. But I won't complain. Rumor has it the Tampa Bay Rays are interested in his services, so it looks like he'll be out of the division all together pretty soon. That's a plus. Now, if he can take Paul Goldschmidt and Miguel Montero with him, that would be an even bigger plus.
