First roster moves

Manager Mark Mason made his first moves aimed at getting the Wild Things' roster down to the required 24 players by Tuesday when he released nine players Sunday afternoon. They were:

Pithcers - Corey Bachman, Brian Honeyman, Dan Horvath, Michael Mondesir.
Catcher - Jon Leber
Infielders - Chris Carrara, Aaron Janusey
Outfielders - Blake Butler, Alex Paluka

Horvath and Carrara each had solid seasons last year with Washington. Carrara's release means Joe Spiers will likely make the team as a backup infielder.

Mondesir and Honeyman were the starting pitchers in the Friday exhibition games. They combined to throw seven scoreless innings against Lake Erie.

There are only four outfielders - if you count DH Jacob Dempsey as an outfielder - and five infielders in camp. I wouldn't be surprsied if Mason is looking to add another outfielder.

Of the remaining 28 players, 17 are pitchers. If the two catchers, five infielders and four outfielders are kept, that means 13 pitchers will make the team.

Jamal,
My friend and I were just discussing you last post. We strongly feel that both cowboys and Indians
are under-represented on the Wild Things roster. Now hear this, we are not going to cry to President Obama – we are coming down to CEP with a bunch of silver bullets and a quiver full of arrows.
I hope the Wild Things hire you as a parking lot attendant so you can clean up the stuff that Silver and Scout drop on the pavement! Quit being such an idiot!
