This is the game against Mets that Chipper got hurt with the strained oblique. Betemit subbed in for him.

JS traded Betemit the next day as Orr was starting at 3B. Baez and Aybar didn't come to the team until that Sunday though.

No way. I remember everyone being pissed because we had just traded Betemit right before Chipper went down. That's why JS was all disgruntled too. Unless the trade had been finalized but not officially announced yet.

Looking at the schedule and roster, I think that's exactly what happened. Aybar was on the team the next day.
