According to MLB.com
6/20/06 Cleveland Indians
Designated RHP Jason Johnson for assignment; Purchased the contract of INF Joe Inglett from Triple-A Buffalo.
It feels good, doesn't it? Hopefully Shapiro can work out a trade in the next 10 (?) days so we don't have to eat the entire contract.
UPDATE: We're waiting for official word, but apparently ...
Jeremy Guthrie was optioned back down to Buffalo, where presumably he will rejoin the rotation.
RHP Ed Mujica gets his first big-league callup, taking Guthrie's spot in the pen.
... and the big one ...
Jeremy Sowers is expected to be promoted from Buffalo to take Johnson's spot in the rotation on Sunday.
It would be fair to say that both Sowers and Mujica have terrorized Triple-A hitters this season. Sowers lacks imposing K rates but has allowed only 13 ER in 14 starts, averaging 6.5 innings, five hits and two walks per outing -- and he has allowed only one home run all season. Mujica has allowed
zero runs -- yes, zero -- over 39 innings, a span of 24 appearances split equally between Akron and Buffalo -- with a healthy 35 K's along the way. [Jay]
