While the International League got Triple-A action underway this weekend, the lower levels don’t begin the 2023 schedule until Thursday, April 6. So teams take the bit of extra time, as usual, to think about their prospect assignments. Both the Double-A Erie SeaWolves and the West Michigan Whitecaps released their rosters on Sunday. There were a few interesting assignments, but by and large they’ve drawn it up as expected.
The Erie SeaWolves will have several of the organization’s top prospects on hand when play begins later this week. The Tigers top preseason prospect, right-hander Wilmer Flores, will lead the way in the SeaWolves starting rotation.
