Ryan Langerhans traded

Well this is good news, Ryan Langerhans has been traded to the Oakland A's for cash or a player to be named later ( I'll get to that in another post). It looks like Langerhans will get more playing time in center field for the A's.

-Willie Harris has been called up from Triple-A to join the team tomorrow. The guy was impressive in spring training and in the minors hitting .362 with 16 runs. He also has good speed to add.

-Does this possibly get rid of a platoon in left field or 1st base? I can only hope so, I think it's time to give Scott Thorman a chance everyday. His 4-4, 4 RBI performance earlier today certainly helped his case. Craig Wilson is solid off the bench for either pinch hit or sub once in a while, and he can play OF and 1B. I also think Matt Diaz is better when he gets more playing time. I haven't looked at any stats, just speculating. Either way this is an improvement.
