Kind of random, but I saw Mitch Mustain is now in the Arena Football League.

With yesterday's rainout, Intimidators starting pitchers for remainder of series at AUG: Today: Jaye. Tomorrow G1: Leyer, G2: Brennan.

Righty Chris Beck, who will start this morning for the Dash, has dominated in his first three starts of 2013. The fourth-best pitching prospect in the White Sox system according to Baseball America, Beck has yet to allow an earned run in 18.2 innings.

OF Adam Heisler to Winston-Salem, per his own Twitter feed. Could mean an OF coming down from W-S to Kanny... Hawkins? Trying to find out from the teams. Could also be Rice going down, or could be a non-OF, or some other set of moves.

Kanny says Ruben Sierra Jr and Storm Throne joining team. No word on anyone coming off W-S roster, they may not have been at full capacity anyway.

Rice released.

OK, got the full picture now:

 

--Bill Rice released

--Adam Heisler to W-S

--Storm Throne and Ruben Sierra Jr to Kanny

 

Throne is an interesting guy, big power arm with little refinement. But if he's there and not in rookie ball, they likely think he fixed some things in Arizona.

 

Heisler is a speedy leadoff type. OF in W-S is now Hawkins, Haddow and Heisler - 3H.

 

Sierra looks like a backup OF who played last year in the Frontier League.

Kanny also release Michael Gunter, a RP

That explains some odd tweets from him, wasn't sure what they meant, didn't want to ask. Thanks.

 

I don't know a ton about Gunter, other than he was an NDFA, and a side-armer. But man, his K numbers were huge at Bristol last year... made a brief appearance for B-Ham... and was racking up the K's this year too. All with decent control. I wonder what the story there is, seems like an odd release candidate.

ROSTER MOVE: Kyle Robinson joining the Intimidators from Extended Spring. Rangel Ravelo to the DL (retro to 4/23).

Leesman re-signed.

All Earley seems to need is a chance to play. He hit all of last year and seemed to drive in a lot of big runs. Doing the same this past week.

Right!! If Hawkins had numbers like that at W-S, FSB woould be going crazy.

Matt Zaleski placed on the #DL today. Zaleski has made 70 starts in a @KnightsBaseball uniform. 2nd All-Time to Charlie Haeger (73).

I seem to remember another NDFA from Samford that threw sidearm...

Haha, yes, he was an AAP of mine. But he was more submarine than Gunter is. And Wassermann made it all the way to the bigs, for a brief stint.

A couple roster moves to announce today, including a promotion to Winston-Salem. Who could it be? We'll tell you soon...

Micah Johnson?

Micah Johnson?

With DeMichele there? Doubt it.

 

More likely... Hawkins to DL, and Coats to W-S, if I had to guess. Then Hawkins may go to Kanny when he's back. That is just my guess by the way, no inside info here.

In now...

 

Ravelo to W-S, Tanner down to Kanny, Marjama to DL.

 

The Ravelo mystery tour continues. He was on DL. Not sure which position he plays in W-S.

 

Also, Hawkins to DL.
