Ramiro Pena Called up to Main Roster

From George King of the NY Post:

Ramiro Pena is at Yankee Stadium and the infielder is expected to be activated for tonight's game against the Red Sox.

Reliever Anthony Clagett, recalled from Triple-A Scranton/Wilkes-Barre on Aug. 5, likely will be sent down.

Pena, sent down himself on July 1, was 2-for-27 prior to going 2-for-4 for SWB on Thursday.

Chad Gaudin, acquired in a trade with the Padres on Thursday, is expected to join the Yankees tomorrow and another roster move will have to be made.


This is an improvement over Cody Ransom. Nobody can argue with bringing Ramiro Pena back. Hopefully he stays on the roster for more than a day.
