Ryan Rowland-Smith dropped to make way for a Putz

After pitching 4 pretty strong innings on Sunday, Ryan Rowland-Smith was dropped to AAA Tacoma Rainiers to make way for a putz - JJ Putz who was returning from the DL. It seems that he is supposedly being groomed to come back as a starter. While it must have been pretty disheartening, RRS seems to be taking it in his stride: "All I can do is pitch, go to Triple-A and work my ass off and give them no reason to keep me out of Seattle," he said. For more of his thoughts, check out his latest blog post.

Meanwhile, Grant Balfour has continued his strong season. He pitched a clean inning on Tuesday against the A's.
