Astros Minor League Roster Moves/Preliminary Roster Info for Greeneville

There were a couple of roster moves of note from yesterday as RHP Ross Seaton (Oklahoma City) and OF Andrew Aplin (Corpus Christi) were both placed on the 7-day DL. Also another pair of players were signed for the DSL teams: SS Anardo Peralta (18) and OF Jose Benjamin (18).

Although the Greeneville roster hasn't been announced yet in advance of tomorrow's opener, I was able to obtain the preliminary roster info and it appears that the Rookie League Greeneville Astros are going to be fully stocked with 2013 and 2014 draft picks!

The UNOFFICIAL PRELIMINARY ROSTER indicates that 12 of the 2014 draft picks are expected to play there to start the season:

LHP Zach Davis (25th round)
RHP Dean Deetz (11th round)
*RHP Brock Dykxhoorn (6th round)
*RHP Joshua James (34th round)
RHP Eric Peterson (37th round)
RHP Keegan Yuhl (35th round)
3B Connor Goeddert (15th round)
1B Bryan Muniz (22nd round)
*SS Antonio Nunez (18th round)
*C Trent Woodward (20th round)
*OF Sean McMullen (30th round)
*OF Ramon Laureano (16th round)

*Signing has not been announced yet. (I have updated my draft list with the info, though.)

In addition, the following 2013 draft picks appear on the preliminary roster:

RHP Devonte German (11th round)
LHP Austin Nicely (10th round)
C Jake Nottingham (6th round)
RHP Jorge Perez (30th round)
OF Jason Martin (8th round)

Others rounding out the roster include:

LHP Reymin Guduan
RHP Gerardo Juarez
RHP Angel Heredia
RHP Agapito Barrios
RHP Jose Montero
RHP Juan Santos
2B Juan Santana
C Brett Clements
OF Ydarqui Marte
IF Luis Reynoso
IF Yonathan Mejia
IF Dayne Parker

It was the first mention I had seen of Dayne Parker. Apparently he is a non-drafted free agent shortstop out of Wichita State.
