This is the Hamels Shuffle.
Hamels to Philly
Mazone to S/WB
someone (Segovia?) to Reading
Kendrick to Clearwater
someone from extended spring to Lakewood

That's probably the case, with Montero taking McCarthy's spot in the bullpen and Haeger going back to Charlotte's rotation.

Well, we have an early leader for random injury of the year, either this or Kerry Robinsons DL-inducing laughter
From what I've seen of Aball life styles these guys don't even have kitchens. This one Sally league team stayed at a Days Inn all year and others stay at little apartments that have kitchenettes at best. Did he take a can opener to his elbow?
I have no idea; I read that blurb in the Modesto paper.
It's hard to get info about the Cal League. Not as hard as the Florida State League, but still hard.

All it takes is a sink, a glass and not paying attention to cut yourself washing dishes... it's amazing, actually, how dangerous that activity can be. I almost cut the tip of my finger off trying to pick up a piece of glass that had somehow managed to wedge itself in the caulking between the counter and the wall.
Either that or he and his roommate were playing "dodge-knife" and Matt lost.
Every now and again I guess right:

He clarifies that he is not JJ Johnson
Different Johnson. That James Johnson is the Orioles' pitching prospect. The J.J. Johnson above is the former Cubs' OF farmhand, now with the Phillies' organization.

Sadly games by position is no longer there
Also Wichita has activated P John Gragg.
Durham has to make another roster move to accomodate Nick Green, but I haven't yet heard what it is.

Much anger ensued.
is this the same dee brown? or is there another one?
Don't know if that has been mentiond here before
There is another one, but this is the original one.
It's around 2:15 into the Memphis broadcast, 2:14 into the Tucson broadcast; I listened to both of them this morning. The home-plate umpire (who had the angle) called it fair, and John Gall (the LF), who had attempted a sliding catch, immediately objected. The Memphis broadcasters thought the ball was foul (mentioning that it "kicked up dust", which indicates that it hit on the track next to the LF fence), but agreed with the Tucson broadcasters that the base umpire was in no position to overrule the call. They only had two umpires working the game rather than the usual crew of three.
The Memphis broadcasters also thought that the ball might have bounced up over the fence, and could have been a book-rule double.
