Have to drop one of our minors to add Drew Cumberland. Gotta be down to 20-player limit. Need some outside help, as they all seem too good to let go.

Out a year with balance and headache problems, Cumberland is now able to resume baseball activities. Had to take a shot, but we need to release a guy to add Cumberland. Very difficult choice…

Although I would probably not be in such a hurry to add on Cumberland until he proves he is back.

Finally, we decided to just pass on claiming him and stick with what we have, which includes three guys who figure to be fairly solid SS — Machado, Segura and Rutldge. Got a little nervous about the likelihood that Cumberland fully recovers. He would be a sweet prospect if he does, but we were not totally convinced he would ever regain the level of excellence he had attained when stopped playing in 2010. Might be a mistake not to get hom now, but we passed…

may end up being a 2B guy.
