Justin Ruggiano could join Michael Wacha for Aggies playing in the post season. He was recently acquired from the Mariners by the Dodgers and is off to a 5 for 8 start with 2 home runs, 4 runs, and 6 RBIs.

Ruggiano is playing well still! Pennington is also seeing regular playing time for Toronto with Tulo out. Could have three Aggies in the postseason.

Alex Wilson has had a fine year and Logan Kensing is still with Seattle.

Naquin and Stripling added to 40 man rosters to protect from Rule 5 draft.

2012 was a very productive year for Aggie baseball.

Wacha, Naquin, and Stripling all big leaguers

kind of neat that 11 years later...MJ still has 3 of his A&M players in the bigs

Also neat that Logan Kensing earned a bullpen spot mainly because fellow Aggie Alex Wilson is out on the DL to start the season.

Blake Allemand is starting the season with the Brevard County Manatees (Melbourne, FL), the Advanced-A affiliate of the Brewers. When drafted last year, he was assigned to their Rookie team in Montana where he spent a few weeks before being promoted to their A team in Wisconsin where he finished out the season.

I guess Kensing, Ruggiano, and Pennington are three current major leaguers who played for Mark Johnson at Aggieland. Wow! They have played for a long time.

Wilson back from the DL and in the bullpen for the Tigers. Scoreless outing today.

Awkwardly enough because of Wilson's return.

They could have just needed a catcher for a day or so. It happens.

you are probably right..... but the man travelled 6000 miles (3000 one way Modesto Ca to Hartford Ct) to play three games for a AA team.

Pro baseball may be "Living the Dream" but it is still a tough gig.

Honestly, people tend to think of trades as someone "not being wanted" but they can be very good for the player. If he's blocked by current/future players then by all means trade him to someone that needs him.

You work your way up for 3 weeks, hit over .300 and blogs start using you as trade bait because of the next sure thing under you. Can't feel good. Sure sometimes they can be for your benefit. Robbie Grossman is a local Houston kid who got came to the Astros as part of the Wandy trade. It worked out good for him because there was an opportunity to play MLB ball.
