Re: AZL Reds

A lot of the names get anglicized. I believe Lopez' anglicized name is Yimmy. Jhonatan Perez is now Jonathan Perez for example.

Could be quite the interesting pitching staff once the real J. Perez and Travieso are on it.
Jonathan Perez is now listed on the roster. So is Wandy Peralta, one of the pitchers who seemed to be worth watching with the DSL Reds the last couple years.

And they're down to one Lopez, a catcher spelled Jhimmy.

Re: AZL Reds

Avain Rachal, drafted this year as (presumably) a pitcher, is listed as a second baseman.

UH had him listed as an infielder and one of their recruits.

"Avain is a kid that plays hard every time we have seen him play and really swings the bat. Avain plays for longtime coach Woody Champagne at Cy-Fair High School and is the cousin of UH associate head basketball coach Alvin Brooks."

Avain can play multiple positions and his get after it approach will fit right into our program."

Re: AZL Reds

I see Jonathan Perez, a 21 year old RHP on the roster. Presumably not a 3B or the 17 year old signee. Also, where is Oliviel Florentino- the top international signee from 2010?

Florentino is in the DSL. My guess is that the information on Perez is still confused with the other Jonathan Perez they had listed at 3B yesterday -- height, weight, age, etc.

Yeah, it looks like Perez is being Yimmied in reverse. While there were two entries for one Lopez, it appears they might have lumped two Perezes into one misidentified fellow. Or something like that.
