Happy Birthday to ~

LHP Wes Musick (26)
Obtained in the Matt Lindstrom trade with the Rockies in December 2010, Musick was originally drafted by that organization in the ninth round in 2009 out of the University of Houston. (He had been drafted by Houston earlier but did not sign.) Musick started the 2012 season with Lancaster, but due to a chain reaction starting with the Kyle Weiland injury, he was promoted first to Corpus Christi and then to Oklahoma City with good results at each level. In 14 games (12 starts) between the three venues, he was 4-4 with a 3.04 ERA and a 1.216 WHIP before an injury derailed his season. He last pitched on June 19th.

CF Jose Monzon (21)
Signed by the Astros as a non-drafted free agent out of Venezuela, Monzon spent his second season with the rookie level Greeneville Astros in 2012. In 45 games, he hit .214/.301/.282. He played winter ball in the Liga Paralela in Venezuela this off-season, hitting .213/.315/.340 in 16 games.
