Billings and GCL Reds rosters released
2006 Billings Mustangs
Notables include: OF Drew Stubbs, 1B Logan Parker, RHP Sean Watson, LHP Travis Webb, RHP Jordan Smith, RHP Kevin Gunter, and RHP Rafael Gonzalez. Jordan Smith(6th round pick this year) is listed on their as a 3B, but I am pretty darn sure that is a mistake. 2006 GCL Reds Notables include: RHP Jeremy Burchett, LHP Robbie Nickols, C Jacob Long, 3B Milton Loo, SS Michael Jones, 3B Rafael Sanchez, OF Keltavious Jones, and OF Justin Reed. I wish Loo would have started in Billings, but I figure he will find his way there very soon if he hits well. |
Re: Billings and GCL Reds rosters released
That GCL team is loaded with good athletes. That will be a fun team to follow with the power armed lefty (Nickols) combined with the power potential of Milton Loo, Rafael Sanchez, and Michael Jones and the athletism of Justin Reed and Keltavious Jones.
Stubbs and Parker are about the only bats I'm truly interested in from Billings, but that pitching staff lef by the power arms of Sean Watson, Travis Webb, Rafael Gonzalez, and Jordan Smith and the polished arm of Kevin Ginter could be worth watching. |
Re: Billings and GCL Reds rosters released
Thanks OBM.
I can't wait to see if Justin Reed can actually hit. He is such an athlete, if he has a decent bat he could be a steal. |
Re: Billings and GCL Reds rosters released
im really interested in the Reed draft pick. Seems like they definatly didnt think he would still be there and once they saw him there they couldnt pass it up.

Kelatvious Jones -- automatic 1st team All-Name Team. Wonder if he's related to Motorboat...

Re: Billings and GCL Reds rosters released
Very interesting. A handful of completely unknown non-Latino players on the GCL roster. We appear to have been active on the NDFA and secondhand markets.
Given the Billings assignments of eight Latino players (a couple, like Lasso and Rojo, who have played elsewhere- but several who haven't been in the US before), it appears as though our south-of-the-border operations are doing well. |

When do their seasons begin?

Re: Billings and GCL Reds rosters released
I see Terrell Young on the roster. What is up with this guy? I was wondering about him. Also, why isn't Chris Gruler on the GCL Reds roster? I guess he is still not ready to try it again.

According to an article in the Billings Gazette, both 2006 draftees are signed and will be placed on the Billings roster pending the results of their physicals. Are Rojo/Lasso merely reserves who are filling in on a temporary basis or will Valaika/Turner be coming off the bench? |
