Bakersfield, Tucson Confirm Swap Thursday, June 1st , 2000 It likely won't turn either team into an instant contender or provide a huge franchise shakeup, but the Bakersfield Blaze and Tucson Sidewinders finalized a trade today. Bakersfield will send 26-year old minor league C Ned Yost and 24-year old minor league CF Fred M Lewis to the Sidewinders, while the Blaze will receive 29-year old minor league LHP Ray Sadecki. "We think this is a deal that will help out both teams and we're glad to get it done," Blaze general manager Brandon Jackson said. The trade is expected to be officially completed later today with the players joining their new ballclubs by the end of the day. Looking at his present stats, Yost has compiled a .107 batting average in 7 games with a .194 on-base percentage, while hitting 1 home run and driving in 2 runs. |
