Burke (Columbus, OH): What do you make of Kyle Russel's season?
J.J. Cooper: It's a good season but as a three-year major college program guy you would expect him to hit in the Midwest League. Those strikeouts are pretty scary for his long-term potential.

Mike McCoy (Rockies):
CALLED UP: Promoted from Triple-A Colorado Springs when rosters expanded.
DEBUT: Sept. 9 in a 4-3 win against Cincinnati. Came on at second base defensively in a double-switch and did not have an at-bat.
NOTES: McCoy made his big league debut at age 28, coming up from the SkySox after showing defensive versatility with time at second base, third, shortstop and all three outfield positions. He hit .307 with 27 doubles, 102 runs scored and 40 steals, ranking among the Minor League leaders in runs scored and leading the team with a .405 on-base percentage. He was a 34th-round pick in 2002 by St. Louis.
