Yesterday’s News: Turner shut down, winning streak ends

Much of the news of the day yesterday came from the fact that Tsuyoshi Wada‘s status for his Saturday start against the Cardinals is uncertain. He was still feeling some discomfort, so it is sounding like he might have to miss the start. It seems like someone might have to be called up from the minors to fill in for Wada, and for a bit I was hoping that would be Pierce Johnson, but that is probably a long shot. Another possibility is Donn Roach, who has been doing a pretty nice job as a starter in AAA this year, but I couldn’t help but wonder if Edwin Jackson or Travis Wood might get a shot at it.
