Activate Alou, send down Evans. Then, you're far less likely to need PH for anyone other than the pitcher, except in limited situational reasons (like replacing Easley with an LH if Castillo sat). Raul hits in blowouts, Ramon hits for Schneider in close games. Valentin had another injury issue the other day (I can’t remember what), and isn’t an option.

What happens if Schneider gets hurts? Who is your backup. And Schneider can't play every game. If you send Casanova down, you can’t use Ramon Castro as a pinch hitter.

He has experience at it with the Marlins. I think Casanova might be the best bat they can find in the minors, which is just a sad reality. It really is a shame that FM got hurt when he did, he would have brought some life to the team even if he wasnt getting any hits. Evans looks like he would rather be writing in his blog or checking in with myspace for the latest...
