Notes: Quiet Week...

Series time:

Notes:

  • C Jose Godoy cleared waivers and was outrighted to Indy; he elected free agency instead.
  • Per John Dreker of Pirates Prospects, C Roberto Perez, who missed almost all of last season and will soon turn 34, said that the Pirates have expressed interest in bringing him back and he's open to it. He also wants a multi-year deal...lotsa luck with that.
  • The Silver Slugger Award is given to the best offensive player at each position in each league. This year's winners will be named on Thursday, November 10th on MLB Network; the Pirates lone candidate and very long-shot for the trophy is Bryan Reynolds.

  • If you thought that the list of young 'uns to audition was running low, watch for theses names next year (and in the upcoming 40-man shuffle): C Endy Rodriguez, SS Liover Peguero, 2B Nick Gonzales, 1B Malcomb Nunez, 3B Jared Triolo, OFs Matt Gorski, Canaan Smith-Njigba & Travis Swaggerty and Ps Quinn Preister, Mike Burrows and Nick Mears. And there are guys below them waiting for their turn...
  • The Astro-Phils World Series didn't start until 10/28 and is tied at a game apiece, with Games #3-5 starting Monday at Philadelphia. BTW, there are no former Bucs on either Fall Classic roster.
