Which can, of course, only be followed by more injured Dodgers once Repko runs them down. Just in from Dodger HQ:

LOS ANGELES – The Los Angeles Dodgers today placed outfielder Juan Pierre on the 15-day disabled list with sprained medial collateral ligament (MCL) in his left knee and recalled outfielder Jason Repko from Triple-A Las Vegas. General Manager Ned Colletti made the announcement.

Repko, who will wear No. 17, is available for tonight’s series opener at Houston.

This ought to get interesting.

Hallelujah! Slap is out and with Conte handling his rehab, I expect Slap will like his knee replacement. Either that, or that crack Dodger medical staff will send Pierre in for liposuction or something even less necessary.

Maybe they can give him a talent transplant?

I wouldn't mind if they somehow channeled Brett Butler into Slap's mind...would work for me. No talent needs to change hands, just a smarter ballplayer's intellect.

So Torre puts Repko immediately in as his leadoff guy, sheesh. 0-5 with 4ks and 4 LOB.
