The 2012 Transaction Rundown: July 14-20

Back to my regular gig (make sure to check out my eyewitness recap of last night's train wreck in the Gateway District in the "Second Thoughts" article).
In the past week, I have developed a theory as to the nature of the Roster Holes: They're rabbits! There's no other explanation for the sheer pace at which they are multiplying. As of press time for this week's TR, there are Roster Holes in Columbus, Akron, and Lake County.
In non-Roster Hole news, Cody Allen completed his rapid ascent of the Tribe organization with his debut yesterday at the big field off of Larry Doby Way and new Indians (Benny Suarez, Nelson Rodriguez, and D'vone McClure) made their pro debuts in Goodyear while a few veterans (Nick Bartolone, Trevor Crowe, and Jordan Casas) played their final game in the Wahoo system.
All of these moves (and more) can be found in convenient list form below:
