Shuffling The Pitching Deck - Two Sent Up, Two Sent Down

The Jays made a couple of roster moves yesterday, sending struggling reliever Aquilino Lopez to AAA Syracuse and designating former fifth starter Josh Towers for assignment. To replace the two righties, the Jays called up a pair of righties: Michael Nakamura who the Jays picked up on waivers from the Twins on April 4th, and Justin Miller who went 9-5 with a 5.54ERA for the 2002 Jays.

How They've Fared This Year

Lopez (DOWN) 11.42ERA, 9G, 8.2IP, 4HR, 4BB, 7K
Towers (DOWN) 7.27ERA, 2GS, 8.2IP, 0HR, 3BB, 5K
Nakamura (UP) 3.00ERA, 3G, 9.0IP, 0HR, 3BB, 12K
Miller (UP) 2.16ERA, 3GS, 16.2IP, 2HR, 4BB, 21K!

Question of the Day: What does the future hold for Josh Towers?
