Breslow to be DFA'd to make room for Borowski

It's almost official...

Craig Breslow's short time(and with the lack of time out of the pen, I do mean short) with the Indians could be over.

The Indians told Breslow last night that he'd be designated for assignment to make room for closer Joe Borowski who is ready to come off the DL.

The Indians will have 10 days to release or trade him. If he clears waivers the Indians can send him to Buffalo if he so chooses. Because he was so rarely used, there is a chance the rest of the league has forgotten about Breslow, just like Wedge did. So there is a good chance we can slip him back to Buffalo.

If not, it's too bad. I thought Breslow did well before Wedge decided to stop using him often. His last two appearances came after 11 days off, which is really too much time off for a reliever to come in and be effective in my opinion.

On the other hand, it might make the most sense.. Now they can send Laffey down to bring Westbrook back, and Aubrey to keep Marte and also bring Choo back into the fold.

Obviously, they aren't ready to end the Andy Marte experiment just yet. Or else Breslow would still be with the Major League ball club.

A new pack of Marbolowski's to be opened tonight, given the Indians actually take a lead. Hopefully his return sets the rest of the pen straight.
