After Orlando Arcia needed to be carted off the field during last night’s tilt between the Milwaukee Brewers and Pittsburgh Pirates, it was reported that Mauricio Dubon would be called up to the big leagues. That seemed to indicate a coming injured list stint for Arcia, but according to the team’s beat reporters, the incumbent shortstop has avoided serious injury. Dubon has still been officially called up to the team, but it might wind up being a short-term stint with Arcia set to return to action after this week’s All-Star break.
INF Mauricio Dubon has been recalled from Triple-A San Antonio and RHP Burch Smith has been optioned there.
