Are we finally seeing Bryan De La Rosa showing his potential. At or below .200 most of the year at Rome, in the last four games he has had a homer, four doubles and five runs scored. Heard little about his catching skills, so I don't know if he is still considered a backstop or merely a hitter with potential.
MOVES GALORE:
The farm system is getting a shakeup
Newly acquired John Gant has been assigned to Mississippi
Andrew Robinson (4-1, 2.91, 2 saves and a team-high 34 apperances) has inexplicably been released. In two partial seasons for the M-Braves, he was 9-1 with three saves and a sub-3.00 ERA.
Kyle Kinman has been promoted to Miss., which is where he's needed to be all along
SS Emerson Landoni has gone on the DL
Just-acquired Rob Whalen assigned to Carolina
Newly signed FA Clayton Cook assigned to Carolina. RHP, 24 years old, signed with Cleveland at age 17.
Wes Parsons returns to the DL at Carolina (dammit)
FA signing Steve Borkowski assigned to Danville. One of the top RHP in NAIA, out of St. Catherine's College.
