Sandford traded ... not so fast!

UPDATE:
Late last night, the Wild Things sent an updated roster to the Frontier League that included the note that center fielder Darian Sandford had been traded to Joliet. There was no note as to whom the Wild Things received in the deal.

That's because there is no deal.

By Thursday morning, the trade had been rescinded. Nobody was saying exactly why Thursday night, but Sandford was back in uniform with the Wild Things before their game against the Greys was postponed.

Washington did make other roster moves with their outfielders as Gus Benusa was placed on the 7-day disabled list with a quad injury. He left the game Tuesday in the middle innings. His spot on the roster was filled by outfielder Rogelio Noris.

Also, Washington released first baseman Rick Devereaux today. The West Allegheny High School and Pitt product was in his second season with the Wild Things. He was off to a slow start the plate, batting only .139 (5-for-36). The moves leave Washington with 23 active players, one under the league limit.

Sorry to see 2nd year players go, but, onward and upward. Good luck to Rick and Darian.

and, I'll make my own correction- Glad to see Darian flying around our bases and more good luck to Rick.
