No. 1 pick Braxton Davidson has been promoted to Danville along with pitcher Oriel Caicedo to give the D-Braves a little push in the pennant race. Trevor Sprowl has also been added to Danville, down from Rome.
As has been discussed below, 17 year old pitching sensation Dilmer Mejia has been promoted stateside to the GCL Braves from the Dominican League, where he was an all-star. All he did today was pitch five shutout innings in his debut.
Based on his four-hit, four RBI day in the GCL today, Joey Meneses should be ready to be returned to Rome or promoted further. His injury derailed a tremendous start of the season.
With Poythress going on the DL, maybe for the season, the M-Braves have added FA Erik Castro. He's a catcher-first baseman who was released by the Astros in June but has been playing for Fargo-Moorehead (.319-1-14). But this 26-year-old had 27 homers and 108 RBIs (second in the league) in the Cal League in 2012.
