Overcoming an ankle injury and celebrating an All-Star appearance within the Eastern League, Dean Green has plenty to smile about as he continues moving forward.
The excitement of the Eastern League All-Star experience still fresh in the air, Dean Green was in route to return for the start of the second half of the season for the Erie SeaWolves. With barely the chance to stop for a breather, official word was released on Thursday afternoon that the power hitter was being called up to join the Triple-A Toledo Mud Hens.
Coming out of Barry University, Green was selected by Detroit in the 11th round of the 2011 MLB draft.
