Ex-Cardinals Watch 7-9-09: Tagg Bozied & Cody Haerther Sign Deals; Chris Narveson DFA'd; Mark Mulder Almost Ready; Scott Rolen Hitting Streak Goes On

Scott Rolen (Blue Jays):
Scott Rolen continues to close in on a place in the Blue Jays' history book. On Wednesday night, he pulled a pitch from Rays left-hander Scott Kazmir down the left-field line for a fourth-inning double, extending his hitting streak to 25 games.
Blue Jays Official Site

Right-hander Roy Halladay is not the only available player on the Blue Jays' roster. The Jays are shopping right fielder Alex Rios and would consider moving third baseman Scott Rolen, among others, major-league sources say.
Fox Sports

Jeff Suppan (Brewers):
The Cardinals jumped to a 4-1 lead in the top of the fourth inning against Suppan, who allowed only those four runs in 5 2/3 innings of work. The big blow belonged to Ryan, a .297 hitter entering the game who made the Brewers pay for an intentional walk two batters earlier to .219 hitter Joe Thurston by hitting a two-run double off the left-field wall. It was one of three Cardinals hits off Suppan in the inning.

Felipe Lopez (Diamondbacks):
Felipe Lopez followed with a three-run homer to give the D-backs a 6-2 cushion.
Diamondbacks Official Site

Chris Perez (Indians):
At least the state of confusion has passed. When manager Eric Wedge calls to the bullpen and asks for "Perez," there will be no mystery as to which one he's asking for.
Indians Official Site

Kiko Calero (Marlins):
Immediately following their 7-0 road victory against the San Francisco Giants, the Marlins made a roster move, activating relief pitcher Kiko Calero from the 15-day disabled list.
Marlins Official Site

Jamie Moyer (Phillies):
Every time Phillies left-hander Jamie Moyer records another victory, it seems he climbs another rung on baseball's ladder of all-time great pitchers.
Phillies Official Site

Jack Wilson (Pirates):
Similar to the situation with LaRoche, though, there don't seem to be teams waiting in line for Wilson right now, so I'd suspect he'll remain.
Pirates Official Site

Tagg Bozied (Pirates):
The Pittsburgh Pirates signed and assigned him to Triple-A Indianapolis.

Scott Thomas (Dodgers):
Triple-A Albuquerque placed him on the 7-day disabled list with a strained right quad.

Cody Haerther (Sioux Falls):
The Sioux Falls Canaries of the American Association signed him to a contract for the 2009 season.

Jeff Weaver (Dodgers):
With Eric Milton on the disabled list, long reliever Jeff Weaver will start Saturday in Milwaukee.
LA Times

Chris Narveson (Brewers):
To make room on their roster to call up lefty Manny Parra to pitch Thursday against St. Louis, the Brewers designated reliever Chris Narveson for assignment after their game tonight.

Mark Mulder (Free Agent):
According to ESPN The Magazine's Buster Olney, Mark Mulder, the veteran left-handed pitcher who has spent the last eight months working on his flexibility and mechanics, has informed his agent, Gregg Clifton, that he feels like he's 95 percent, and should be ready to audition for scouts in the next week to 10 days.

Jonathan Estes (Freed-Hardeman Coach):
New Freed-Hardeman baseball coach Jonathan Estes said he always wanted to return to the school since graduating seven years ago.

Ex-Cardinals Watch 7-7-09: Kip Wells Released; Luke Gregerson & Scott Thomas Activated; Alberto Castillo & Randy Flores Optioned; David Eckstein On DL

Daric Barton (Athletics):
It almost seems as if Barton is washed up at this point. The former top prospect in the system flamed out last year when given the big-league job at first base, and then he followed that up with a miserable start at Triple-A when he was sent back down to the minors to begin the year. After spending much of June in back in the big leagues more out of necessity than anything else, Barton is now trying to hit his way back, going 7-for-21 with three home runs since his return to Sacramento. He's still a relatively young 23, and he still has some kind of a chance.
Baseball Prospectus

Chris Perez (Indians):
It was not the kind of first impression any pitcher would want to make.
Akron Beacon Journal

Adam Kennedy (Athletics):
The A's got him more, though. Mark Ellis hit a two-run double to center later in the inning, and Adam Kennedy made it 4-0 with an RBI single, one of his three hits on the night.
Athletics Official Site

Kip Wells (Free Agent):
Right-hander Kip Wells has cleared waivers and elected free agency.
All Nats All The Time

David Eckstein, Luke Gregerson, & Edgar Gonzalez (Padres):
Padres second baseman David Eckstein was placed on the 15-day disabled list Monday as San Diego made a series of roster moves.
Padres Official Site

Jason Marquis (Rockies):
Not that Jason Marquis needed it as he recorded his best-in-baseball 11th win, but the game served as an exclamation point after his All-Star selection Sunday. The veteran right-hander tossed eight shutout innings, extending his scoreless streak to 17 frames. That stretch includes a complete-game victory over the Dodgers.
Rockies Official Site

Joe Girardi (Yankees MGR):
Derek Jeter's lengthy Major League career has featured many events on the playing field, but thus far, he has been able to avoid an ejection. Yet if he were tossed in the first inning on Monday, he might have been justified.
Yankees Official Site

Alberto Castillo (Orioles):
Was optioned back to Triple-A Norfolk at end of June.

Timothy Dorn (Angels):
Single-A Cedar Rapids placed him on the 7-day disabled list.

Scott Thomas (Dodgers):
Triple-A Albuquerque activated him from the 7-day disabled list.

Randy Flores (Rockies):
Was optioned to Triple-A Colorado Springs.

Phillies Fans Still Hate J.D. Drew; Scott Thomas Released From Minor League Camp

Apparently, Phillies fans' hatred for J.D. Drew is not constrained by geography - the crowd at Clearwater gave the Phils' former No. 1 pick, who never signed with the team and re-entered the draft in 1998, a healthy booing when he stepped to the plate in the first inning.

Catcher Scott Thomas, son of former Phillies general manager Lee Thomas, was one of several minor leaguers released at the Carpenter Complex.
