After pitching a few scoreless innings in the Hall of Fame game before it was rained out, Eric Milton has been cleared to return to the rotation and is scheduled to make a start on Saturday against Detroit.

To make room, Elizardo Ramirez will probably be the one sent back down. I guess that makes sense, but there are so many good candidates for sending to Louisville. I hope they'll all get due consideration.

Man, it's been a long time since I've done a blog buzz, but it's hard to find the inspiration when the team's just been swept for the first time. I was all ready to take solace in trouncing the Pirates, but then tonight's game happened. It's just depressing.

Maybe I can go find a photo to make fun of or something. Hang in there guys: it won't always be this bleak. Or, even if it is, we'll get used to it.
