Released LHSP Mike Porzio from Buffalo (AAA)

 

Demoted LHRP Carl Sadler to Akron (AA) from Buffalo (AAA)

 

Promoted 1B/C Ryan Garko to Akron (AA) from Kinston (A+)

 

Garko has mainly been playing 1B the last month. However, with Michael Aubrey entrenched there in Akron, Garko will probably see more time behind the plate, or at DH. Regardless, there wasn’t much left to do in the Carolin League for Ryan; he had been hitting .328/.425/.609 in Kinston, with 17 doubles and 16 home runs. Kinston isn’t left with many prospects for now, though some Captains should be promoted fairly soon, including Kevin Kouzmanoff, Ryan Goleski, and Brad Snyder
