Cards RH Anthony Reyes fits this label. He dominates AAA hitters, putting up gaudy K-rates and low ERAs, but outside of a terrific start in the ’06 World Series, he hasn’t translated his success to the Majors. The Cards just sent him back down to Memphis after he posted an ERA over 6 out of the ‘pen for them so far this year.

He didn’t get called up because unlike Boggs he was not on the 40 man roster and calling him up would have forced the team to make a move there.

Jason, I think you’re confusing your own desires (winning) with the Mariners’ internal goals (no clue what those are).

Sounds like Mr. Bavasi should be making a phone call down to Texas, yes?

What do you have to say about Pirates’ pitcher John van Benschoten, who has had two failed trips to the majors (2004 and 2007), was sent back to AAA both times, and has gotten progressively better there. He was recently brought back to the Pirates’ bullpen after the ouster of Matt Morris. Could the third time be the charm?
