Schmidt Wins Again
Jason Schmidt recorded a second win for Triple-A Albuquerque in his Minor League rehab assignment Wednesday night, allowing Memphis four runs on seven hits in six innings with five strikeouts and no walks. Schmidt made 85 pitches, 60 of them strikes.
In other Minor League news, Josh Lindblom is scheduled to make his first Triple-A start Thursday after last week’s promotion. Infielder Tony Abreu has been promoted from Double-A Chattanooga to Albuquerque. Journeyman left-handed reliever Brian Mazone was dealt to Philadelphia for future considerations and lefty Carmen Cali was released. — Ken Gurnick
It maybe too little to late but if Jason Schmidt can provide any help to the starting rotation it will be icing on the cake. Also Joshua Lindblow promotion to Isotopes is one more stone to walk on his way to the majors
