I'll have a special Minor Happenings later this afternoon sort of giving an update on the Sabathia/LaPorta trade with comments from some scouts, agents, LaPorta, and Farm Director Ross Atkins as well as many other things.
Anyway, I was at the press conference in Akron on Tuesday night.....what a crazy scene. I'll explain more in the article as well. In any case, LaPorta is now officially here and I gotta say I was very impressed with his confidence and composure in handling the media swarm of about 30-some reporters and 3-4 TV cameras.
The game was rained out, but I was still able to talk to catcher Wyatt Toregas and manager Mike Sarbaugh at length. So look for pieces involving them soon.
One thing Sarbaugh mentioned in our talk was that Chuck Lofgren is back, but that he will initially pitch out of the bullpen.
Aeros and Baysox Rained Out Tuesday
