Double A Roster Crunch

The Royals face an interesting problem, one that they haven’t faced that I can remember even during their first wave of talent of the GMDM regime. That problem is having too much pitching ready or nearly ready to pitch at the AA level. Currently the 1st placed NW Arkansas Naturals have a rotation that breaks down following way:

JC Sulbaran
Christian Binford
Miguel Almonte
Jonathan DziedzicLuke Farrell

Farrell is a new addition to the rotation and performed quite well in his first start after getting promoted from Wilmington. Overall the pitching staff has faired well, ranking third in the league in ERA and combining with the league’s top offense to push the Naturals to the best record in the Texas league and a 6.
