Last minute additions

Or subtractions, if you want to look at it that way.

Roger Clemens was scratched from his Saturday start because of "tightness in his hamstring." It will instead be Phil Hughes taking on the Blue Jays this afternoon. I guess this is where the off-day and the six-man rotation come in handy. No shortage of starting pitching, and moving guys up doesn't push them that far off regular rest. As of right now, Clemens is scheduled to pitch on Monday in the series finale against the Jays. Moose should be scheduled to go on Sunday.

The Mets finished off the Marlins last night, with a 9-6 final. Again, no Wagner sighting in the 9th. He's been held out the past few nights because of back spasms.

The Padres, meanwhile, lost 2-1 to the Rockies in 14 innings. And the Diamondbacks finished off the Dodgers, 12-3.
