Otters Preseason Roster Reaches 31
Less than a week before the start of training camp, the Otters’ preseason roster has reached 31. We released shortstop Marcel Champagnie this week, but added four players to the roster.
We resigned righthanded pitcher Chris Rollins after the Padres released him. Chris pitched for us last year. We also signed two players with no professional experience–catcher Jared Jordan of New Mexico State University and third baseman P.J. Sequeira of Oral Roberts University. And Ryan Morris, Cleveland’s fourth round pick in the 2006 draft, has joined our starting rotation.
The roster now includes 14 pitchers, three catchers, eight infielders and six outfielders. Thirteen of the players were with us last year; 18 are new.
Fifteen of the 31 players on our preseason roster were drafted by major league organizations.
