Otters Add Veteran Starter

We signed starting pitcher Jeremy Thorne today.  Thorne, 25, pitched for Arkansas, the Angels’ AA team in the Texas League, last year.

A righthander, Thorne was drafted twice by the Anaheim Angels–in the 42nd round in 2007 and in the 29th round in 2008.

Thorne’s addition increases our preseason roster to 28; 14 of those players were drafted by major league organizations.

We are carrying 12 pitchers, 2 catchers, 8 infielders and 6 outfielders.  Thirteen of the 28 played for us last year; 15 are new.
