Late Night Tidbits

Two fantasy relevant bits of news...

Howie Kendrick has been demoted to AAA. Kendrick has been dreadful all year, but I have seen some signs of life from him lately. Still, Kendrick will likely be up in 2-3 weeks tops, and hopefully have snapped out of his funk by then. He's just too good of a pure hitter to be this bad over this long of a span.

Brandon Morrow has been slated to fill in for the injured Erik Bedard tomorrow, in what is said to be a precautionary move by the M's. The plan was initially to send Morrow down to AAA to develop him into a starter, but with the Bedard news, the M's obviously adapted. He's said to be on a 60 pitch count, so don't expect much. Plus, the start is at Colorado, so I would highly suggest benching him for tomorrow if he's on your team. It'll be interesting to see how he fares. If he does well, I don't know if the M's would still send him down.
