Kage’s Notes

Bullpen! Bullpen! Bullpen! – I seem to be singing the same song every season. I think it is time to start looking and some more serious activity to strengthen the pitching staff. I have to two starting pitchers in the minors that they tell me are ready to be brought up. V. Houston and B. Salazar.

SWAP: Jennings for Carlson

Earlier today, officials from the Madison Mallards and the Oklahoma City Marlins announced that they had finalized negotiations on a trade between the two teams. The deal will send 28-year-old reliever Arthur Jennings to Oklahoma City in exchange for 19 year minor league catcher Kenny Wilkinson and 19 year old minor league shortstop Trevor Carlson.

So far this season Jennings is 2-1 with no saves and a 7.36 ERA. He has given up 33 hits in 24.2 innings with 17 strikeouts. It came a surprise to management but the fans weren’t really happy and fan interest decreased (from 100 to 98).

GM’s Note: This was a move to bring in some young bodies and to start to clear room for Salazar and Houston. I went back and forth with Oklahoma City to get some stronger prospects, but they were looking for Polledo or Johnson in the deal. Trevor Carlson is a 3* potential and a defensive wiz at shortstop. May have some potential to reach the ABL. This move allowed us to bring up Vincent Houston who will slide into the bullpen. The pitching staff want’s him as the number 5 starter, but I am not comfortable with that I would like to see him get some innings under his belt first.
