From Tales of the Weird and Snakebit

Post by dkcarter23 »

Arturo Leon, comes off the DL after a loooong stint. And Philly decides to ease him back in (rehab minors assignment he was o-fer) and use him as a pinch hitter late against The Lites from Mikwaukee.

He does his job and hits a solo hr, and promptly goes back on the dl for 40 more days. Only in Philly!!

Les Smith had a similar journey for the Bohs, he pitched 2/3 innings on 6/27 against Washington and went on the shelf for 35 days, then returned for a 4 2/3 inning start on 8/5 and now is back on the shelf for 22 days. Maybe he came back just a bit too soon!
