Nelson Velázquez and Manuel Rodríguez were placed on the taxi squad today. I assume this means they’re headed to London so that if someone gets hurt in the Saturday’s game, they’ll be ready to added to the roster for Sunday’s game.
I spent most of the evening locked out of my laptop, so I apologize for being late tonight. And apologizes in advance if I miss something.
Iowa Cubs
The Iowa Cubs plucked the Memphis Redbirds (Cardinals), 9-5.
