SEPTEMBER CALL-UPS

With New Orleans below .500 and 6 out I am going to make moves not concerned with how they finish out.
Pitchers:
Allen Henderson went down and got his innings in going 4-3 9 Saves 2.43 striking out 31. Still having control concerns, as he walked 14 in those 29 innings,
26 year old SP Rodolfo Nunez went 10-7 3.53 in 23 starts and earned a promotion. Nunez was a waiver claim from Brooklyn last November.
Sean Garrison (25) was acquired in a July trade with El Paso. He was lights out there going 0-1 2.92 in 12 IP with 16 punch outs. In New Orleans he was better, going 2-0 6 Saves 0.84 over 10 IP with 12 K's. Gotta find the strike zone more often but a huge arm.
Just 3 position players, 22 year old Matthew Brittingham was having another great season (.315/.355/.495) and earned a spot on the 40 man after his big year at AA last year.
Same with Matt Chiquete (25), who followed up a 2013 at AAA that saw him hit .289-15-60 with a .363 OBP.
I love the flexibility 3 catchers provides and the main target of the July deal with El Paso was Catcher Skyler Houston (30). + Defender with elite eye. Was hitting .236 with a .411 OBP at New Orleans after a quick stint in El Paso where he sported a .400 OBP in 35 PA's.
John Tite (.266/.346/.572 29 HR 61 RB), Danny McKeith (.300/.351/.424 4 HR 36 RBI) and Andy Williams (.257/-29-72) were all considered but right now none are on the 40-man. Williams and McKeith will be rule-5 eligible this winter.
