First quasi-"surprise" or simply a guy that was unknown where his destination would be: Michael Fisher has reported to Buffalo. Probably means Kazmar and even Rodriguez are in Bingo, right?

I'm not surprised about Fisher. He's quietly been pretty solid and can play every position in the infield. Fisher had a better year than Kazmar last year.

Fisher was actually a pretty good find just for org depth. Early round pick who was cut loose way too soon it seems - he's useful to keep around the upper levels to fill needs, in kind of the Jon Malo role, but Fisher appears to be a much better player.

Jack Egbert has also arrived - another "maybe". Maybe I should break out this Bisons roster into its own thread an update as they come?

For instance, Fulmer has the chance to join a staff led by Frank Viola that will have three accomplished college starters in the rotation.

-DePo

Confirms Fulmer for Savannah, also confirms 3 "accomplished college starters" which I'm going to guess are Verrett, Pill and Leathersich.

Couldn't one of them be Bret "The Hitman" Mitchell?

Phillip Evans says on his facebook: "Big league game today against the Yankees!"

Guessing this means he joins Nimmo in EXT then probably BK

Where do you guys think Akeel Morris and Urbina will pitch?

Mack from Macks Mets has this to say about Savannah Roster...

If Mack is accurate then none of OF Brandon Nimmo, SP Akeel Morris, SS Phillip Evans, OF Gilbert Gomez, and SP Juan Urbina are in Savannah. Nmig suggested Gomez might be in St. Lucie but if he's not that's pretty shocking to me (that he wouldn't even be in Savannah)

If that roster is accurate, I'm also surprised Frenzel isn't playing 1st there.

Yeah wow. Not looking good for Frenzel that he's headed to Brooklyn again or Kingsport wow.

St. Lucie could be a landing spot for Frenzel.

His performance in Brooklyn doesn't warrant it, obviously, but he is 22 years old.
