Default Glanville traded, Ramon Nivar called up.

Wow, too bad Palmeiro didn't get a homer last night, we'd have traded him.

I listened to Diamond Talk last night. They were heralding Nivar. Ben said he hated Glanville because he was keeping Nivar in Triple A.

They said Nivar's problem is he swings at everything. LITERALLY, he swings at EVERYTHING. Fuson said he saw Nivar do something he'd never seen before: with two men on, he swung at a pitch that bounced in the dirt and hit it into center left field and got 2 RBIs and a double. He goes stretches where his on base percentage is the same as his batting percentage. In fact, after one particular game, it was actually lower than his batting average because he got a sac-fly.

Supposedly, he is wicked fast and plays center field foul line to foul line because of his speed, desire and ignorance of the position.
