Walkers news: Minor league deal sends Alexander to Green Bay for left fielder
The St. Louis River Walkers have completed a one-for-one deal of minor leaguers with the Green Bay Long Haulers.
St. Louis will send 24-year-old third baseman Blaze Alexander to the Haulers in exchange for 25-year-old left fielder Jesse Franklin.
Alexander is part of a glut of solid young third basemen in the St. Louis organization, however, does not seem to possess much power.
The Walkers minor league system, however, does seem in need of corner outfielders and the power-hitting Franklin could fit the bill.
