A quick note as I head out the door for more jury duty. The first cuts from minor league camp occurred today.

John Hinson
Jeremiah Meiners
Daniel Meszaros

We wish all of these players the best of luck.

Happy Birthday - 9/6

RHP Daniel Meszaros (27)
Drafted by Houston in the 48th round in 2008 out of the College of Charleston (SC), Meszaros logged 48 appearances in 2011 between Corpus Christi and Oklahoma City. He was 1-5 with 5 saves, posting a 4.87 ERA and 1.656 WHIP. He has been rehabbing at the Florida complex since having Tommy John surgery in the off-season.

No Announced Roster Moves But ...

We knew that Danny Meszaros was starting the season on the DL, but Baseball America showed that he is starting the season on the 60-day DL while the other players we knew about are starting the season on the 7-day DL.  Jordan Comadena told me that Meszaros was having Tommy John surgery so that explains that.  Meszaros was a 48th round draft pick in 2008.  He is currently 26 years old.
