Is Link still in AA or did he get promoted to AAA with Carrasco and Wasserman in the bigs? Weird that they would promote Teixeira to the AA squad when Link is already there unless they planned on moving him up.

Link got his 28th save for Birmingham yesterday.

Owens seems to be doing well since his return.

Link had pitched two innings the previous day, so he wasn't available. I could see Link being sent up to AAA soon. That would put their three best prospect closers on different teams, with Mabee in high A, Texeira in AA, and Link in AAA.

If Wassermann struggles again (and he looked good Monday), I'd like to see Link get a shot in Chicago.
