Ready for some injury news? Low-A Charleston placed Slade Heathcott, Jose Ramirez, Eduardo Sosa, and Kyle Roller on the disabled list either today or within the last few days. No idea what’s wrong with any of them, but that’s three of their five best hitters and a top three starter. Yikes.
Baseball America has some more draft signings, and many of those guys are on the Short Season Staten Island roster. Their season started today, so we’ve got another team to track. The Rookie Level GCL Yankees start their season on Monday. Also, Gary Sanchez got some love In The Team Photo of this week’s Prospect Hot Sheet.
