You sure on Dent? He tweeted about driving to the northeast. Nevermind, I see it now. That's nuts.
Dreily Guerrero also heading to Salem, it looks like.

FWIW, last year we got 2 of the rosters later on Monday afternoon and two of the rosters mid-day Tuesday.

Bo Greenwell to Greenville according to his twitter Appears like he has already been called up to Portland, probably as part of the chain of moves thanks to Victorino going on the DL. Also, Aaron King to Greenville. |

The Astros sent Appel to high A Lancaster. I don't know why they'd send him there. I wouldn't even want a team there, but I certainly wouldn't sent a guy like him there. Either start in Low A and then skip to AA or just start him in AA, he can handle the jump. He's already 22 and an experience guy. Sometimes I wonder if teams worry too much about hitting each level along the way. Jose Fernandez, never touched AA or AAA. I think this is especially true with pitchers.
Guys only have so many bullets and some times their best velocity and or are stuff can be used up in the minors.

Let's keep this to the Red Sox minors. Looks like Mercedes is going to Salem.

Sergio in Greenville. He was on the projected rosters for Salem. I hope he shows enough to get to Salem this year.
Mercedes not on Greenville roster. Barring injury, that bodes well for him starting in Salem.

I see a lot of borderline older players made Greenville (guys that I thought might be cut over the last offseason). I would expect a lot of shuffling between XST and Greenville between now and June.

Interesting that Hinojosa and Britton reportedly did not make the Pawtucket rotation, getting bumped by Chris Hernandez and Jeremy Kehrt. That likely shuts the door on Britton as a SP, and is not a great sign for Hinojosa.

That likely shuts the door on Britton as a SP, and is not a great sign for Hinojosa. I believe it was announced in ST that Hinojosa would be working out of the bullpen. I believe Britton is RP only and will be a quick callup in the event a LHP is needed. Keep in mind that one of the starters is a place holder for Barnes, when he is back (in a couple of weeks, most likely). |

Johnson is a surprise. Mercedes is a pleasant surprise in Salem.

I'm pretty interested to see who made the Portland rotation over Johnson...seems odd to start him in Salem again
