Phil Coke and Chad Moeller are the first two September call-ups; they’ll join the team in Detroit tomorrow. The 40-man roster is currently full, but Chien-Ming Wang & Jorge Posada can be moved to 60-day DL to make room. Dan Giese will be activated from the DL on Tuesday, joining the team in Tampa. How much are they missing him right now? Crazy.
