Went to the game last night, straight from work, didn't get home til 2am and then went to work at 6am. After a power nap, watching the game and catching up the blog.As I expected Iggy was placed on the disabled list and one of my candidates to replace him was called up in Manny Acosta. I've got to say Acosta looked very good in person in his first inning of work. Hard throwing with some nasty movement. Several of us in the stands questioned why he was let in for two innings, as he's always been a one inning guy. Just as scripted Acosta got beat up in his second inning of work.This goes back to the rotation, when there's a pitcher or two in the rotation who are consistently coming out early it forces the pen to be over used and ask relievers to work outside their norms.
