Mike Remlinger Relief Pitcher Chicago Cubs Profile 2005 SEASON STATISTICS GM W L BB K ERA 35 0 3 12 30 4.91 The AL East-leading Red Sox cut lefties Alan Embree and John Halama last month. Remlinger was designated for assignment by the Cubs last Friday. Remlinger, 39, was 0-3 with a 4.91 ERA in 35 games. He was sidelined from May 21 to June 5 because of a broken finger on his left hand. He was especially effective against righty hitters, holding them to a .210 batting average. Remlinger had been one of the more reliable and durable lefty setup men in recent years. He was an NL All-Star in 2002 with Atlanta, which came during a stretch in which he made at least 70 appearances in five straight seasons. Last year, he was 1-2 with two saves and a 3.44 ERA in 48 games for the Cubs, and twice was on the disabled list. Remlinger also has pitched for the Giants, Mets and Reds. Astacio, a 21-year-old righty, is 7-11 with a 4.33 ERA in 38 career games in the Boston system, spending much of his time in the rookie Gulf Coast League. In another roster move, the Cubs recalled outfielder Corey Patterson from Triple-A Iowa and optioned infielder Ronny Cedeno to Iowa. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
