Snelling and Langerhans swapped

For each other.

I'll let the good people of Catfish Stew reminisce about the Ryan Langerhans Era in Oakland as it's over. Watching the Washington-San Diego game on Extra Innings, Don Sutton, of the Nats broadcast team, said that Washington had acquired Langerhans from Oakland in exchange for Chris Snelling.

Here's how my arrival home from work went.

  1. Put away groceries.
  2. Turn on TV and watch end of Boston-Oakland game.
  3. See Langerhans play in the game.
  4. Doze off for a few minutes.
  5. Find out that the Boston-Oakland game is over and now I have the San Diego-Washington game on.
  6. Hear Don Sutton make announcement that Ryan Langerhans will be a Nat. Sutton and Bob Carpenter are very excited about this.

I guess I'll go eat dinner now before my spinach salad is traded to my neighbor for a bowl of soup.

it would be really funny if oakland sent snelling to atlanta as the PTBNL for langerhans. that'd pretty much end up as a free rental then, right?

With Piazza out maybe he'll DH and won't have to worry about getting hurt until he has to slide, which means he should last a week instead of 2-3 days.

Dave and DMZ at USS Mariner are going to be furious.

They are more resigned to their fate:
