Matt Eddy of Baseball America has the complete minor league transactions for the first week of May. Here's the most noteworthy move:
- The Red Sox released right-hander John Maine, according to Eddy. Maine, 31, last pitched in the Majors with the 2010 Mets. He had a strong 2007 season, but his performance later dropped off and he missed considerable time with shoulder injuries. Maine posted a 7.43 ERA in 46 innings with the Rockies' top affiliate in 2011 before signing with the Red Sox this January.
Peter Gammons giving John Maine an exit interview:
Hey John, now that you have been released by the Red Sox, what are you going to do now? Peter, 1st let me just say that is a very good question.
Second, I am finally “Going Back” to Baltimore!
This is Peter Gammons signing off, Thank you and have an “Egg McMuffin” of a day!
I fondly remember John Maine’s start on September 29, 2007. It was his finest hour.
It was mine! Two home runs…
Yes, why not.
