Justin De Fratus and Josh Zeid, minor league relievers in the Phillie system, were selected to appear in the Arizona Fall League's Rising Stars game, which will air Saturday night on the MLB network. I've seen both at Lakewood, Zeid in the championship game in September. Way to go, guys! Both have performed well for the Mesa Solar Sox this fall in Arizona. De Fratus has a 0.00 ERA in five relief appearances.Congratulatios to the San Francisco Giants, who got it done.
Angels' bench coach Ron Roenicke is the new manager of the Milwaukee Brewers. This is interesting because only last week the mainstream media were reporting Bobby Valentine as a lock for the job. Journalism gets weirder and weirder. See: elections 2010.
