Matos DFA'd, CRod sent down. Black and Drohan recalled

[patrickgpe]

the long rumored move of Tyler Black coming up is happened. You would have to believe this is his last chance before loosing prospect status.

Black is one of those guys I've always liked for no discernible reason. Hope this time he gets enough regular ab's to show he belongs. I'm also interested to see what Drohan does in the pen. I think he might have a better future there than the rotation.

Any other old guys see Molitor when they look at Black.  Similar game but moreso in looks.  Hoping he can become an ignitor too.

[Outlander]

Both Black and Bauers have played outfield, not sure who would be considered the better defender. Would think they called Black up with the intention to start him against at least two of the three Pirate right handed starting pitchers.
