"The Diamond Jaxx have also activated 1B Brian Dopirak from the DL. Dopirak is in tonight's starting line-up, playing first base and batting in the fourth position. Dopirak has appeared in just one game with the Diamond Jaxx, going 1-3 on opening night against Birmingham. To make room on the roster, the Diamond Jaxx have released OF Adam Greenberg. Greenberg appeared in thirty-two games, hitting .179 with no homers and one run batted in."

Why should you care? Adam Greenberg came up last summer with the Cubs. He got one at-bat. He was hit in the head on the first pitch.

I feel awful for the guy. One pitch, get put in the hospital and years and years of effort goes down the tubes.

1. I was watching the game when he got hit. Look on the bright side,

if he never gets to the big leagues again, he will have a lifetime 1.000 OBP.
