It's Murphy

Hello from Manchester, where it's raining at MerchantsAuto.com Stadium (doesn't that name just roll off the tongue?).

So the Sea Dogs game will be delayed, if its played at all.

Meanwhile, in San Diego, the word is that David Murphy has been called up to the Red Sox (at least temporarily, until a pitcher is called up to replace the DL'd Curt Schilling on Tuesday).

According to lineups posted on the web, Murphy is not in the lineup, even though J.D. Drew is also sitting. Wily Mo Pena is in right.
