Back to Fresno

The Mark Sweeney Situation has been resolve. Thank God. For weeks Friday has been looking in our national consciousness, a day to be remembered not only for its challenges but the heroism of those that rose to face them.

Well, that happened or Sabean decided to send Kevin Frandsen back to Fresno to make room for Sweeney. So far Frandsen is 0-1 in three games, so its not as if they're sending down someone who was tearing it up in the bigs or anything Still, I feel this is just a way to buy more time to shuttle Sweeney off somewhere else, or at least give him a chance to build up some value. Even if everyone stays healthy, I expect Frandsen back by the All-Star break at least.

Not that he doesn't have anything to prove in Fresno, but in 298 AB last year he hit .304/.358/.440 out there. I hope he gets something out of playing everyday, but I think he needs more time against major league pitching to really improve.
