Colter Bean is one of the strangest players I have ever seen. A guy who has dominated AAA for 3 seasons yet never gets the call because of his age (29) and his velocity (mid to high 80s). Bean is a sidewinder for the most part who figures to be a RH specialist or a mopup man if used.

 

Chances are, after the game, Britton will be sent down for Karstens, then Wright will be sent down for Wang on Tuesday. Bean may be with the club until Friday, which is the projected return date for Mike Mussina.

Bean is a guy I like. If given a chance I think he could do a good job as a Major League reliever. It's nice when he gets the rare callup to be able to watch him first-hand.
