STANDINGS
13-11, #4 in the AL, 4 games behind KC, 10-4 in the last two weeks

BAD NEWS
-Andrew (4.35), Faulkner (5.24), Nolting (4.91) - not good numbers for our vet starters
-Kress (.130), Mitchell (.155), Lutske (.215) also had a rough month.
-Castaneda was one of the few hitters playing consistent ball but was lost to injury and is expected to miss another 2 weeks.

GOOD NEWS
-Roy Wolfe (5-1, 2.10) is pitching well and just barely missed out on Pitcher of the Month.
-John Patterson has been a busy guy leading the AL in games (16) and saves (8).
-Matt Perly (.311, 7HR, 20RBI) has been our top hitters. Coleman is only hitting (.247) but is at least hitting for power (6HR, 19RBI).

ROSTER MOVES
-With Castaneda out we need another SS on our active roster as Fite has no confidence in Joe Starling. Mark Shirey has been covering SS, but that leaves us no backup at 2B or 3B. Our choices for call up are Elroy Lundberg or Nasty Camacho. I really REALLY hate the idea of rushing Nasty, but the 19yo is by far the best hitter at Buffalo-AAA right now.
