A lot of new names have popped on rosters in the past few days as teams scramble to fill spots.
Here are a few that caught my eye:
Loyola Marymount pitcher Martin Viramontes is on the Orleans roster. Viramontes was a Cape League all-star in 2008, but he missed the spring and summer of last season with an injury. An imposing righty with a mid-90’s fastball, Viramontes struggled this spring. He was drafted in the 27th round by the Yankees.
Bourne added Bethune Cookman catcher Peter O’Brien. The sophomore put up huge numbers this year, hitting .386 with 20 home runs.
Cape League veteran Kevin Patterson is one of several additions to the Cotuit roster. Patterson, a junior from Auburn, hit 16 home runs this spring and was drafted in the 23rd round.
