April 16, 201115 yr RT @Kevin_Goldstein: Just heard: The #Braves have acquired Triple-A OF Stefan Gartrell from the #WhiteSox for cash considerations.
April 16, 201115 yr Bye Stefan! I had enjoyed tracking your not-so-rapid rise through the WS organization. Hopefully you get a shot somewhere.
April 16, 201115 yr QUOTE (scenario @ Apr 16, 2011 -> 02:15 PM) Answers the question about how to create playing time for Milledge. Wait, didn't we DFA Milledge or did I miss something?
April 16, 201115 yr QUOTE (TitoMB @ Apr 16, 2011 -> 09:51 PM) Wait, didn't we DFA Milledge or did I miss something? Playing time at the minor league level. Yes, Lastings was DFA'd, but I honestly kind of liked that Gartrell. He seemed to be a possible 4th or 5th OF'er for this team. Maybe he will get a chance in Atlanta

April 17, 201115 yr Funny thing is, the Knights were in Gwinnett to play the G-Braves. So, the deal was probably consumated while they were in town and they left him behind when they headed to Norfolk. Gonna miss Stefan.
