Somebody posted this on another forum, but apparently Mike DiMuro has a blog on the Umps Care website. He indicated Meriwether is retiring as well, however, due to language in the new Collective Barganing Agreement, his replacement for the vacant spot will not be announced until the end of the 2010 season. For that reason, I would guess he appears on the "DL" on the list posted on West's site. So...his spot would be the "fifth." Perhaps he is going on the DL for this season and his retirement will not be effective until the end of the season.
