When is Kobernus expected to actually play?
Brian,
What’s the word on Dean Weaver and are any more bats expected to be signed?
I must have missed it, what happened to Corolla? Why did the Nats release him?
Failed a physical.
Today.
Thanks Andrew. I figured it would work out that way – As soon as I ask, he’ll have already played lol. I checked the scoreboard earlier but the game hadn’t started yet so I didn’t know he was in the lineup.
Wil Ledezma released by Syracuse according to milb.com
Dave Williams (LHP) moves up from Harrisburg.
What is up with 15th-rd pick Corey Davis; his initial comittment was supposedly with Fla. State – Jacksonville; Now it’s Walters State CC (GA/SC-based school, somewhat ironically called the “Senators”).
I’d guess that based on age, Morris would get his initial assignment to HAG, while Applebee goes to the GCL, yes?
BinM – That would definitely make sense to me.
Nabob: I’ve got it as Ledezma & Larrison released, D.Williams recalled from HAR. Maybe either Chico (rehab) or Spradlin is going up?
