TRADE NEWS
We sent 23 year old utility man Melvin Watson to Green Bay today. They offered up 25 year old SP Elijah Walton, a SP that could be a nice addition to the rotation if he squares away. 10-11 7.54 in 23 starts (spent last year in AA/AAA) but our scouts like his arm and his durability, he’s a horse and an innings eater if he gets his stuff harnessed.
STUFF
Managed to sign untested and unproven 44 year old Kent Butler to commandeer the Omaha club. A bit steep pricewise but he’s an outstanding communicator and that’s something crucial in the first year or two for young players.
And filled the final spot, inking 34 year old Toby Cook to a 5 year deal to Manage AAA Tulsa. Another very good communicator and young up and comer.
