2012 Minor League Transactions

[redsmetz]

This is just a little more info on the two Dutch players the Reds recently signed.
http://www.mister-baseball.com/reds-...-select-draft/

So it looks like these two are actually playing in the Netherlands as opposed to being guys who are Dutch, but who are from the Dutch Antilles.

Also, Chris Joyce was sent to Billings. Porfirio Martinez was sent over to Bakersfield. This is do-or-die time for a lot of prospects since the new draftees are pouring into the organization. Martinez, like many others, is likely on the chopping block. He has good velocity, but he has shown no idea how to control it.

I see Kurtis Muller is heading to Bakersfield

With Bryson Smith heading to the DL. Jefry Sierra coming back off the DL for Dayton.

Stephen Hunt sent back to Bakersfield

While the new Blaze ownership is making changes to the ballpark, thats got to be hard for the players to go back to Bakersfield from Pensacola. I wonder if it ever crosses their mind they might not ever come back.....

Josh Ravin was demoted to Bakersfield. As mentioned, Kurt Muller was indeed promoted to Bakersfield. Paul Janish was activated from the disabled list, and Bill Bray's rehab was moved to Louisville. Neftali Soto was placed on the disabled list with back spasms.

Is Joey Gathright still on Louisville? I notice he's not playing tonight.

Could he be on his way to the Reds with Heisey and Stubbs both hurt?

Scott Rolen begins his rehab assignment in Louisville tonight. Willie Harris was called up once Drew Stubbs was placed on the disabled list. Nick Masset was transferred to the 60-day disabled list to make room on the 40-man roster. Chris Joyce and Porfirio Martinez switched places again, with Joyce to Bakersfield and Martinez back to Billings. However, Joyce is showing up on the disabled list. The same thing goes for John Holdzkom, who was also sent to Bakersfield from Billings. The transactions page says Josh Ravin was demoted to Bakersfield from Pensacola again, but when you look at Bakersfield's roster, he's listed as a coach, which is what happened with Koyie Hill. Maybe they mean to say he's inactive or something along those lines.

Another development--and maybe this is an error on someone's part--but on Josh Ravin's player page, he's a member of the Bakersfield Blaze with his parent club listed as the Arizona Diamondbacks. And it's also showing his nonexistent hitting stats. Very interesting.

Seems like an error. He hasn't tweeted about being traded and I imagine he would know about it before Milb.com updated his player page.

Milb.com has some issues to work out. Been pissing me off all season. Clean it up

[redsof72]

Steve Selsky will be going to Bakersfield after today's game. Dayton will be adding an outfielder.

Yorman?

Jason Christian was traded to the Mississippi Braves. I'm assuming they received a nominal amount of cash in return.

And as you all probably know by now, Kris Negron was optioned to Louisville when Scott Rolen activated from the disabled list.
