Travis Denker was signed by the Red Sox....: and is playing for Triple A Pawtucket tonight in Rochester, NY. Wonder what the temperature there is tonight? Denker is 1 for 3 as of this writing. Defs and FisherCats are 0-0 in the sixth.

In addition there are several players currently on the Minor League reserve list including Joe Bateman, Julio Cordido, and Jerome Williams. Barry Gunther is listed as a free agent. While I went back through all the rosters to 1992, it is highly likely that I missed some players, so please correct my mistakes.
Also, I haven't checked the Independent League teams. If you have any info on specific players, please let me know so I can update the list. PS. I am not going to even mention how well we have stocked the Twins. Last updated 12:30 PM 4/30/09 Dave McKae was signed to a minor league deal with the Red Sox.
