Valdez traded
The Wild Things made one roster move today, which meant they had to make two moves.
Confused?
Here's what happened: The Wild Things were at the Frontier League limit of 13 Experienced players but activated left-handed pitcher Kyle Helisek, who is Experienced, from the disabled list so that he can start tonight's game against Southern Illinois. That meant another Experienced player had to either be released, traded, put on the disabled list or suspended.
Washington opted to trade shortstop Jeudy Valdez to the Laredo Lemurs of the American Association in exchange for a player to be named. What that really means is Valdez was traded and the Wild Things are likely to never get anything in return for him. This is the second player with Class AA experience that the Wild Things have shipped to Laredo this year for a PTBN. The first was pitcher Kevin Brandt at the end of spring training.
Valdez has been playing well for Washington since joining the team late in May. He is the team's second-leading hitter at .273 with three home runs but only six RBI. He has five stolen bases and committed only one error.

So, who can explain anything this organization does?
Seems to me THEY don't even know what they are doing.
It sure is nice to have a professional baseball team
in Washington that is run by a group of hobbyist.
