The Cleveland Indians promoted 24 year old right hander Rodriguez to replace Ryan Drese in the rotation for a start against Oakland, signaling trust in Rodriguez while Lee remains behind in the minors. Drese heads to Buffalo's AAA, citing disappointment as Skinner notes. The move adds depth as Boogie Baez could shift to closer if Wickman misses next year.

Fehr attacks owners over economic proposals
Union chief Donald Fehr criticized the baseball owners economic plans calling them a wholesale attack on the salary structure. He warned revenue sharing and luxury tax would cripple the sport’s biggest spenders and said the Yankees could lose 36.9 million under the terms. One owner said he would prefer a yearlong stoppage and that up to 10 other owners might back a strike if players walk out.
