Welcome Back to the Blue, Federowicz!


Ya know, I look in bewilderment at some of the moves Ned Colletti has been making.  Like... why did we send TFed back down to begin with?  I understand we received Ramon Hernandez (our other backup catcher) in exchange for Aaron Harang, but was he really the best you could do?  Heck, you would think that a low level quasi-prospect could have been had for him- a guy who might be a long shot as a reliever, at the very least. 

Well, it has now been confirmed that sparsely used shortstop Justin Sellers will be going to AAA, and Tim Federowicz is now back up with the big club.  Per a Dodgers press release:
The Los Angeles Dodgers today recalled catcher Tim Federowicz from Triple-A Albuquerque and optioned infielder Justin Sellers to Triple-A Albuquerque. Federowicz was recently named the Pacific Coast League Player of the Week for the period of April 29-May 5, batting .571 with three doubles, a triple, three homers and six RBI in that span, and overall was hitting .531 with seven homers and 20 RBI in 13 games with the Isotopes. Federowicz enters his third stint of the season with Los Angeles after making the Opening Day roster and has appeared in three Major League games this season, going 0-for-5 with a walk.

Sellers was batting .191 with one home run, one double and two RBI in 26 games this year for the Dodgers.
