Mark Cohoon, who has dominated the SAL and whom I talked about before, has been promoted. Instead of going to HiA St. Lucie the Mets decided to promote him straight to Double-A Binghamton. I think this is a good call by the Mets. He is an older, smarter pitcher who probably would have dominated the Florida State League just as he dominated the South Atlantic League so why not give him the biggest challenge for a minor leaguer which is the move to AA.

There was a plethora of other moves made to go along with this including top prospect Wilmer Flores getting the bump from LoA Savannah to HiA St. Lucie. There were 6 other Sand Gnats who became St. Lucie Mets today; Juan Lagares, Brandon Moore, Rafael Fernandez, Kai Gronauer, Erik Turgeron, and Michael Fisher.

To make room for all these players a lot of players had to be shifted around:

Wilfredo Tovar was transferred from the St. Lucie roster to the Savannah roster.
Brandon Sage was activated and placed in Savannah roster.
Juan Torres was transferred from the St. Lucie roster to the Savannah roster.
R.J. Harris was transferred from the Brooklyn roster to the Savannah roster.
Ryan Mollica was transferred from the St. Lucie roster to the Savannah roster.
Gabriel Zavalawas added to the Savannah roster.
Travis Ozga was transferred from the Kingsport roster to the Savannah roster.
Marcos Tabata was transferred from the St. Lucie roster to the Savannah roster.
