2010 Norfolk and Bowie Rosters

[Fan of Newhan]

According to Baseballamerica.com's latest transaction list, Milwaukee signed Waters to a MiL contract, so he's definitely gone.

Dang, he was a favorite of mine. I know the guy didn't have the most talent in the world, but I like to root for the "underdog" type of players (as you'll notice from my username). I'll never forget his major league debut when he shut out the Angels for eight innings while only allowing one hit.

It seems to me that the AAA and AA are pretty much already set. I'm sure they'll be a couple Minor League Free Agents signed for some additional depth, but as of now, this is how I see the rosters shaping up. Does anyone envision anything much different than this? Do you think we need more depth than what we have to support the big club or are you content to go forward with this?

Fiorentino and Christain in AAA outfield, unless they have moved on and I am unaware. Hoey stays in AA, Thall moves to AAA, Castillo with the O's, McCrory still in AAA unless he signs a minor league free agent deal elsewhere, Abreu starts at AA 2B, possibly Kantakevich in AA bullpen, Deza stays in the AA bullpen after a solid year, Bascom starts in AA, Spoone rebounds in A+.

FYI - Fiorentino signed with a team in Japan and Christian is a MiL free agent. McCrory signed with the BoSox. Deza is also a MiL free agent.

I agree that Bascom will still be in the rotation and Spoone may very well start at A+ depending on how he looks in the Spring.
