Sicilian Digest
Godfathers Deal Reliever
The Sicily Godfathers and the New York Mets made a trade to hopefully boost both teams. The Godfathers are sending MR Jorge Gonzales to the Mets in exchange for 2B Johnathan Pellico and AAA Reliever Porter Hinton. "The trade allows us to make an upgrade at 2 positions and begin to build some depth in the organization" GM Mike Calvaruso stated at the press conference. "We have had our eyes on Pellico for some time and felt he would be a low risk upgrade and Hinton is someone who we will look at providing some instant depth in our relief corp".
With the season being so young, the trade came as somewhat of a surprise, but it appears that (GM Mike) Calvaruso is not afraid to shake things up to make the team better.
Berlin Times
Jones Jr. Called Up!
The main hurdle was the fact that he was 15 YEARS OLD! Other than that, we fully expect this kid to be a monster.
While we started him in AAA with Halle, it was quite evident over the first few weeks of the season that David Jones Jr. was simply not going to be denied his chance to play with the big team and this week we called him up. He hit .458 in his opening week with a 1.177 OPS. And, while I hate to admit it, the Barons have struggled out of the blocks this year so with more support around him hopefully those numbers can get even better down the road.
And due in large part to making a couple of roster moves, the biggest being the one above, the Barons showed nice progress by going 4-2 for the week. We certainly hope that trend continues!
*** By the way, slight logo adjustment, adding the BERLIN to the generic logo. I redid my cap and jersey (learning more and more about that artwork each day, but I've resisted sending the comish a daily cap/jersey update 
)! I've left the original, generic cap and jersey up in this thread because they certainly can be used in solo games if you'd like a Barons team of your own.
New Barons look for 2012
To go with the new baseball attitude in Berlin the Barons revealed their new look for 2012. Both uniforms and caps have been completely changed and will be available to fans immediately so they can show their support!
Welcome to Berlin!
While we know that we have some building to do to be competitive in the German Division, we're confident that we'll build through the young talent that we have waiting for a taste of the big leagues.
Coming out of the pre-season, we were hopeful that some of our veterans would still be able to do the job and give some of our hopefules some time to develop in the minors. After the first few weeks of the season however, it's clear that the building/rebuilding process must begin.
On April 16th the Barons waived a couple of pitchers that we thought might carry the load - Hopken and Walmsley. That made room for youngsters Watson and Guerrero. We especially have high hopes for young Watson.
Just this week, April 30th, the Barons also made some roster moves. More pitchers were waived to make way for the younger arms - Chavez, Devaux and Felder (a German, which is too bad). Stepping in - Boitano, Romero and Rodrigo who were just itching for their chance. Their time is now! Plus we made a move at centre field. Perez out and young Cortes in!
We also gave outright releases to Rivera (36 and out for 10 months with a bad arm…sorry we just didn't think there was a path back at this point) and also Walmsley and Hopken mentioned earlier.
Hopefully we're setup now for the remainder of the Spring and into the Summer.
