Wilkin Ramirez got called up today and he’s getting thrust into the lead off spot against leff handed starter Brian Matusz.  This was a big time WTF moment but Ramirez does have a .416 OBP against lefties down in Triple A so maybe the move will pay some dividends.  There have been some more unusual lineup moves I’ve questioned that ended up working out (somehow). Casey Fien was sent down to Toledo and my guess is, Ramirez goes back when Nate Robertson is set to come up from his rehab assignment.  Speaking of Robertson, he’s throwing in the second inning after a scoreless first in Toledo.
