Haven, I would like SS Kelly Johnson added to my A team. http://www.sportingnews.com/voices/minor_league_report/20010806.html (read under Atlanta) Please move T Unroe up to AA. Also, can you check my roster again? Darryl Ward is on my salary page but for some reason he is not on my roster page at all. Actually, now I see Ward on my triple A roster... please put him on my major league team and do the transactions above. Thanks a lot.

My 2nd missing minor leaguer. Justin Duchscherer was drafted out of high school, and after four seasons in rookie or Class A ball, he is on the verge of making the leap to Class AAA Pawtucket by virtue of another strong season at Class AA Trenton. Duchscherer, a 6-3 Texan who throws a cut fastball as well as a good curveball and changeup, is off to a 4-2, 2.79 start at Trenton, which has struggled in the win-loss column. Duchscherer has thrown a complete-game shutout, and has struck out 48 and walked just nine batters in 58 innings. Duchscherer is one of many up and coming righthanded starters in the Red Sox system who have not yet reached the Class AAA level -- Brad Baker and Seung Song are two notable others. The club is high on Duchscherer, who struck out 126 and walked only 35 last season while posting a 3.39 ERA. Assuming he continues to show progress, he is on track for at least a major-league look by September 2002. http://www.sportingnews.com/voices/minor_league_report/20010524.html

Haven, I want my 2nd added prospect to be infielder (1B/3B) Travis Wilson. Grade: A- Long regarded as fertile ground for developing pitchers, the Braves minor-league system is also producing some top position prospects such as second baseman Marcus Giles and infielder Travis Wilson. Giles, younger brother of Pirates outfielder Brian Giles, was called up to Atlanta on Sunday after utility infielder Kurt Abbott was placed on the 15-day DL. Wilson, who almost made the team out of spring training, was discovered playing fast-pitch softball in his native New Zealand and has started the season at Class AA Greenville. http://www.sportingnews.com/voices/minor_league_report/20010416.html Here are his stats: http://sports.espn.go.com/minorlbb/teamstats?league=sou&team=gre Please place him in AA ball.
