JPN366 Posted August 15, 2012 Share Posted August 15, 2012 (edited) Gregory Infante off the Charlotte DL and moved down to B'ham, Matt Wickswat demoted to W-S, Jon Bachanov promoted to B'ham and (cue cheers and applause) KW Jr. to the DL. I guess they wanted to lock in that .250 average. Edited August 15, 2012 by JPN366 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
oldsox Posted August 16, 2012 Share Posted August 16, 2012 Since I have no life, I broused thru the Houston Astro minor league stats to see how the three pitchers we gave them for Brett Myers are doing.... All three are struggling so far, with Heidenreich probably doing the best of the three. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
southsider2k5 Posted August 17, 2012 Author Share Posted August 17, 2012 Charlotte Knights @KnightsBaseball Brent Morel is back! He was activated off the DL today. Tyler Saladino is back to Birmingham. Good luck Tyler! Hope to see you back soon! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

For how bad a system we have, it is amazing that KW was able to get Liriano/Youk/Myers for none of the guys in the top 20, maybe top 30. Simply amazing.

JPN366 Posted August 17, 2012 Share Posted August 17, 2012 After one appearance for B'ham, Gregory Infante's back on the DL. Brent Morel was activated from the Charlotte DL, Tyler Saladino was demoted back to B'ham, but that move may have been rescinded. Nick Ciolli and Ross Wilson were activated from the W-S DL and Jeremy Dowdy was placed on DL. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And what makes you think the Saladino demotion might have been rescinded? Not sure. Just a guess. Thus why I said "may have been..." It was announced early this morning before all of the other moves. He's still on the roster while the other moves have processed. With Santiago going up, they could've decided to leave him in Charlotte since a roster spot opened back up.

That's around the average height of a 2B in MLB. Jose Altuve is little 5'5". Phillips, Uggla, Kendrick, Pedroria, B. Roberts, Weeks are all 5-11 or smaller. Kinsler and Cano are 6-0.

High draft choice, not sure the term sleeper applies. He was considered pretty polished and mature. But definitely nice to see him doing well. QUOTE (southsider2k5 @ Aug 21, 2012 -> 09:02 AM) Is it normal for those kids to go straight to a pro team at 16? Gonzo in the Trib just talked about this in a recent article. For those 16-17 year olds, even after they have signed, they have to go through hoops for MLB to verify age, eligibility, citizenship/visa, medical and drugs. Takes time. Then they go to a mini-camp of some sort. Then, finally, they get to organized ball. We may not see them this year. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
