Reviewing the roster cuts

Sorry to neglect the blog the last couple days. Between opening day stuff, a long drive to Vero and a sometimes glitchy computer, it’s been a tiring couple days, but we should be OK from here on out. Anyway, to review the roster moves:

Logan, Gomez, Kelly, Mercado, Woodyard, Hessman and now Roman Colon are headed to the minors, presumably Triple-A Toledo for all of them. Former Twins catcher Rob Bowen has been added. So between now and Saturday, the Tigers have to cut a pitcher (German most likely, Grilli possibly) and figure out what to do with Bowen.

Bowen is out of options, so he has to either go north with the big club or go through waivers again. I’m guessing it’s the latter, since there’s no real reason to carry three catchers and Bowen hasn’t shown any reason to stick.
