Ha. I guess the Bot's newsworthiness filter rejected this tidbit.

Adding him to the 40-man roster is "ado". Is it "much ado"? That is the question up for debate.

Or perhaps 'MacBeth' and 'Much Ado About Nothing' are plays by William Shakespeare.

The bullpen savior has been found, our season is saved!

Well, at least he had a decent little run in the minors with some respectable K totals. Probably not much more than a depth move for the high minors.

Thanks for that, but I am aware of the works of Shakespeare. I was simply commenting on the fact that Corsi was (amazingly) beaten to the punch on this one. I responded to his allusion, which implied that he did not believe this transaction was noteworthy, with a possible explanation as to why.
