Good News!
Hit it, Larry!
Erik Bedard has been scratched from tomorrow's start with what Wakamatsu termed "slight shoulder inflammation."
...
The second part of the bombshell is that Brandon Morrow will make the start in Bedard's place.
Brandon Morrow has already thrown 42 and 52 pitches in separate appearances so far this year, so given his pitch count of 60 tomorrow, I'm not really concerned about that part of this thing. He's getting the nod out of necessity, and will be on his way to Tacoma shortly thereafter. With Bedard, though...the team says it's not serious, and that he could probably start, but when you combine "shoulder inflammation" with an already injury-prone starter and a cliff-diving rate of swinging strikes, it's impossible to stay calm. Impossible. Erik Bedard could run a marathon and tell me his legs were sore the next morning and I'd worry they were about to fall off.
I hate this. I hate having to agonize over every little ache. Please be nothing.

I wonder what insulin Morrow's on.
I know there were times where I felt like shit a few hours after taking my shot and excercising.
Doubt it’s on the internet, but I wonder.
Is it time to eat crow?

In fact, I'm certail we'd be better off scratching RR-S from his start today and calling him up.
Who the hell has gone crazy in management?
It's not performance enhancers - it's CRACK!

He's not listed as tonight's starter on Tacoma's site
Not sure if he ever was though

Scapedog.
On another note, the scapegoat dog shares a name with my father’s dog, who got run over in January. He’s still depressed about it.
I hate this sarcastic "good news" thing
I was hoping it was related to Gutierrez being healthy.
Larry Stone has a post up
Quotes Wak, who seems to indicate that Morrow may transition to a starter here instead of Tacoma. Lets hope not…
Weird
It’s under Baker’s blog though.

What changed now?
Why would he have needed to go to Tacoma as recently as a day or two ago, but now, today, it’s ok to develop him as a starter here?
Did he develop another pitch in secret?
Does he have a super secret identity, and he’s been pitching at some other club’s AAA field in a mask and a cape?
Maybe they're just trying to work a deal out to get Bedard to Philly or somethin'?
Not believing it, just hoping it….
Couldn't they lie and say Bedard has the flu or something. I
Shoulder inflammation sure won’t help his trade value
They even say that Bedard could've pitched anyway tomorrow on the M's frontpage.
You got slurved!
Free Tommy Hanson! [FREED]! Free Jeff Clement! Free Michael Saunders!
Tune in next week as Morrow tries out at shortstop!
