Ex-Cardinals Watch 7-8-09: Chad Ehrnsberger & Kris Honel Named All-Stars; Kip Wells & Scott Vander Weg Sign Deals; Alberto Castillo Traded
Cesar Izturis (Orioles):
Needing a roster spot with shortstop Cesar Izturis expected to be activated from the disabled list Friday, the Orioles are exploring trades for infielder Oscar Salazar and outfielder Felix Pie, who have garnered interest from other teams.
Baltimore Sun
Scott Rolen (Blue Jays):
It has been a remarkable run for Scott Rolen. Over the past month, the Blue Jays third baseman has pieced together one of the longest hitting streaks in team history, collecting at least one hit in 24 consecutive games.
Blue Jays Official Site
Edgar Renteria (Giants):
A significant number of Giants regulars have yet to find a sunlight stroke, including Nate Schierholtz (.218), Juan Uribe (.224), Edgar Renteria (.230) and Travis Ishikawa (.231).
Giants Official Site
Jack Wilson (Pirates):
Pittsburgh's early two-run advantage, which had been provided by Jack Wilson's two-run homer in the third, had been erased by the time the seventh rolled around
Pirates Official Site
Placido Polanco (Tigers):
Polanco drove in four runs on the night, his season high. It continues his trend of RBIs in bunches; he had driven in runs in just three of his previous 10 games, but all three were three-RBI efforts. This one happened to come on a day when Leyland talked to his players casually about getting the most out of their final games before the All-Star break.
Tigers Official Site
Kip Wells (Reds):
The Cincinnati Reds Signed him to a minor league deal and assisgned him to Triple-A Lousiville.
Cory Doyne (Nationals):
Triple-A Columbus activated him from the 7-day disabled list.
Scott Vander Weg (Fort Worth):
The Fort Worth Cats of the American Association signed him to a contract for 2009 season.
Alberto Castillo (Long Island):
The Long Island Ducks acquired infielder Alberto Castillo from the Newark Bears for a player to be named later on Monday.
Atlantic League Baseball
Chad Ehrnsberger and Kris Honel (Edmonton):
The Golden Baseball League announced today that the 2009 All-Star selections have been made and the teams are set for next week's clash to be held at Bruce Hurst Field in St. George, Utah on Tuesday, July 14th at 7 P.M. In addition to the game, there will be a Fan Fest with an autograph session at 5 P.M. and a Home Run Derby at 6 P.M.
Golden Baseball League Official Site
Clint Hurdle (Free Agent):
Former Rockies manager Clint Hurdle will appear 20 more times on the MLB Network after his successful debut last month.
Denver Post
Jim Leyland (Tigers MGR):
Tuesday was Elvis Night at Comerica Park, and Tigers mascot Paws wore an Elvis Presley wig, black leather jacket and did some of the King's karate moves.
"I saw Elvis in 1956 at the Toledo Sports Arena," Tigers manager Jim Leyland. "Girls were up on people's shoulders. It was fun."

Ex-Cardinals Watch 6-26-09: Chris Farley Signs Deal; Orber Moreno & Scott Vander Weg Released; Marlon Anderson May Rejoin Mets; Timothy Dorn Promoted
Terry Pendleton (Braves Coach):
Braves hitting coach Terry Pendleton was born in Los Angeles in 1960 and grew up with Michael's music -- and even joined Fawcett on a sitcom set. He said after Atlanta's game that, "you just think people like that are going to be around forever."
"They're the superstars," Pendleton said. "You don't ever think they're going to die. But it's a reminder for all of us that none of us are invincible. Each of us will have a day.
&
Ron Villone (Nationals):
"It's a shame when anybody passes away," Nationals reliever Ron Villone said. It's what people were talking about around baseball, besides baseball.
MLB
Braden Looper (Brewers):
Brewers pitcher Braden Looper had an appointment with the team doctor on Thursday, but reported nothing but soreness the day after he was struck on the back of his right arm by a line drive.
Brewers Official Site
Jason Isringhausen (Rays):
Wearing a backwards cap and T-shirt in the clubhouse before Thursday's game, Rays reliever Jason Isringhausen's attire didn't give the gloomy vibe one might expect from a pitcher just days removed from surgery that might end his career.
MLB
Timothy Dorn (Angels):
Was promoted from Rookie-Level Arizona League to Single-A Cedar Rapids.
Orber Moreno (Free Agent):
The Tigres de Quintana Roo of the Triple-A Mexican League released him. He made four relief appearances and allowing five hits, one earned run, two walks, and striking out three over 3.2 innings (2.45 ERA). Moreno pitched for Diablos Rojos del Mexico earlier in the season.
Scott Vander Weg (Free Agent):
The St. Paul Saints of the American Association released him.
Chris Farley (Worcester):
The Worcester Tornadoes of the Canadian American League signed him to a contract for the 2009 season.
Marlon Anderson (Newark):
Furthermore, Marlon Anderson is believed to have left the Bears with the hopes of returning to the Mets organization, and will apparently retire if he is unable to do so.
He played seven games this season with the Bears — all on the road — and hit .240 with an RBI, three walks and three strikeouts.
Atlantic League Baseball
Dan Haren (Diamondbacks):
Right-hander Dan Haren's velocity hasn't been as explosive this season, but his results haven't suffered, and for that Haren credits the development of his cut fastball, a pitch that he has been working to refine for two years.
Arizona Republic
Edgar Renteria (Giants):
The first is shortstop Edgar Renteria. Thirty-three and a mediocre defender with an unreal amount of wear on his treads, he has had one year in the last six in which he was something more than a decent hitter, and is thus exactly the sort one doesn't want to tie on to. So of course the San Francisco Giants, who have made a cult of this class of player, signed him for two years and $18.5 million, and have been rewarded by the sight of Renteria trying to keep his slugging average and OBP above .300.

Ex-Cardinals Watch 6-14-09:Jason Isringhausen & Coco Crisp Hit D.L.; Jack Wilson Trade Interest; Scott Vander Weg Activated
Jason Isringhausen (Rays):
It doesn't look good for RHP Jason Isringhausen.
The Rays placed the veteran reliever on the 60-day disabled list with an injury to his surgically-repaired right elbow, suffered in the ninth inning of Saturday's game. (They needed to make a corresponding 40-man roster move to make room for RHP Winston Abreu).

The D-backs right-hander was outstanding through eight innings in Arizona's 5-2 win over the Braves at Chase Field.

Felipe Lopez (Diamondbacks):
The Felipe Lopez Watch continues. Hinch said that the second baseman, who felt tightness in his left hamstring last Saturday night in Oakland, may run the bases Friday afternoon, but it sounds like he will not be back in the lineup until Saturday, at the earliest. "The day that he feels he can go out and get five at-bats and play second base for nine-plus innings, he'll be back in there," Hinch said

Edgar Renteria (Giants):
Whether they're aware of it or not, some Giants players grade out quite well on these new scales. Second baseman Emmanuel Burriss, shortstop Edgar Renteria and left fielder Fred Lewis are all among the top four at their positions in National League ZR, while Ishikawa is best among first basemen. Catcher Bengie Molina, who like Renteria won two Gold Glove Awards from 2002-03, is eighth among backstops. Randy Winn is 10th in ZR, but moves up to first among NL right fielders in Revised Zone Rating, which calculates differently balls fielded outside of a player's zone.

Scott Vander Weg Signs 2009 Contract With St. Paul Saints
The St. Paul Saints of the independent American Association have signed right-handed reliever Scott Vander Weg to a contract for the 2009 season.
Vander Weg, 26, was a 33rd round (1010th overall) selection by the St. Louis Cardinals in the 2005 amateur draft. He pitched four seasons in the Cardinals organization, making stops at New Jersey, Quad Cities, Palm Beach, and most recently Springfield in 2008.
The Lamar University product was one of a handful of Redbird players that were suspended during the 2008 season for failing a mandatory MLB performance enhancing drug test. Vander Weg missed the first 50 games of the season and opened with Double-A Springfield, making 19 relief appearances posting a 1-1 record, 4.10 ERA, and earned one save. He was released in early August and picked up a week later by the Philadelphia Phillies, where he was assigned to A-Advanced Clearwater. While at Clearwater, he compiled a 1-0 record, 8.53 ERA, and one save in six relief appearances (6.1 innings).
St. Paul finished the 2008 season with a 42-54 record and were first in league attendance.
