Posted March 31, 201113 yr The Pirates traded infielder Jim Negrych to the Marlins for catcher Carlos Paulino, tweets MLB.com's Jenifer Langosch. Negrych, 26, hit .283/.369/.384 in 457 plate appearances at Double and Triple-A last year, playing second base, third base, and left field. He last appeared in a Baseball America Handbook two years ago, ranking 24th among Pirates prospects after being named the team's minor league player of the year. His main ability is to hit for average, and he profiles as a utilityman if he reaches the Majors. Paulino, 21, hit .184/.214/.234 in 216 plate appearances in Low-A last year. He's never appeared on a BA Marlins top 30 prospects list. From BA March 16-22 Released: RHP Robert Bono, RHP Erick Carrillo, RHP Luis Chirinos, RHP Saul Gonzalez, RHP Ketnold Noel, RHP Steven Stein, 1B Chad Keefer, 3B Aury Diaz, SS Chris Wade, OF Chris Lubanski, OF John Raynor
March 31, 201113 yr Never really got a good look at him down here in Greensboro, but wasnt blown away by anything i saw. As slow as Skipworth is developing, Paulino was well behind him. When should we expect the final roster for the Grasshoppers? First game is the 7th.

April 11, 201113 yr Author Man, Wise goes from being a lock to make the team to a minor league cut. He had an out clause in his contract if he didn't make the Big roster he could leave.
April 12, 201113 yr I saw the marlins also signed Sean Watson, former local high school stud at Florida Christian and then went to University of Tennesse...he is currently pitching in relief for Greensboro.
April 13, 201113 yr Dallas just got promoted to AAA. He is going to pitch for New Orleans on Thursday @ Memphis
April 13, 201113 yr They cut Shawn Hill? What the hell? That guy was insurance for the big league club when certain pitches (coughVolstadcough) fail miserably.
April 13, 201113 yr Author They cut Shawn Hill? What the hell? That guy was insurance for the big league club when certain pitches (coughVolstadcough) fail miserably. Again one of those make the team or release me guys. Still would have been nice to have the insurance seeing they don't have RVH or someone like that ready to go in NOLA

Still would have been nice to have the insurance seeing they don't have RVH or someone like that ready to go in NOLA Sean West is available The Sean West that's on the DL after throwing 3.2 innings in AAA is available? With his stunning 12.27 ERA and batters hitting .429 off of him?
April 13, 201113 yr I was just coming to post that West went on the 7 day DL today. i wonder if that means Dallas will throw tonight on his normal rest or if they will still hold him for tomorrow.
April 13, 201113 yr Well just saw on the Z's website Mclemore will start in West's place tonight. Kind of surprising. Dallas would be on his normal 5 days rest today and Mclemore is going on 4 days rest. Maybe it's a matchup thing.
