Rule 5 Draft

I couldn't (in my very cursory searching) find a more Giants-specific link on yesterdays Rule 5 Draft. In any case, the Giants picked up the AA pitcher (Luis Perdomo) that the Indians gave up for Anthony Reyes. It's buried towards the bottom of the article. The guy's stats last year look pretty sterling but it's a small sample size (72 IP) which suggests that he's already being used as a reliever.

who is Luis Lerdomo?

I’ve never heard of him. Does he play the center field?

also... you are right

a google search for “Luis Lerdomo” turns up NOTHING! I wonder where the Giants found this guy. I mean, the scouts must have some resources beyond Google and all, but this is crazy.

Perdomo?

His last name starts with a P.

¡Soy loco por los Cornballs!

The bases were drunk, and I painted the black with my best yakker. But blue squeezed me, and I went full. I came back with my heater, but the stick flares one the other way and the chalk flies for two bases. Three earnies! Next thing I know, skipper hooks me and I'm sipping suds with the clubby.

I was looking around for something on him, but I guess I didn’t look hard enough.

Any type of mongering is A-OK in my book.

Both guys the Giants picked up in the draft were non-drafted FAs in 2003. Along with Perdomo there was another P, Matt Yorkin from the Marlins org. Yorkin is a Napa guy, went to St. Mary’s.

We lost Elio Sarmiento, Kyle Haines, and Ben Copeland.
