Spoke too soon- Rivera not called up

I got all excited when I heard from a friend Rivera was one of the callups. Obviously he wasn't, so we have Reed, Taylor, Dobbs and Lopez on the club.

Melvin regarding their playing time-

"The kids are here for a reason and need a chance to play, but for the most part, we're going to run our lineup out there," Melvin said. "We're not going to run nine rookies out there and say, 'Go get 'em' against these playoff teams. We owe it to them, and to the rest of the teams in the league and to ourselves to send our lineup out there for the most part."

I have no idea what Melvin is talking about here. His team has lost what six games in a row now? His team has played terrible all year, and he talks about not wanting to run out an inferior product!
