HYANNIS - The Cape Cod Baseball League is pleased to announce the Cape Codder Resort and Spa has just been named the official meeting place for the league. 

     Philadelphia rookie David Buchanan (Brewster, 2010) made his Major League Baseball debut Saturday and it lasted longer than his entire Cape Cod Baseball League career.

     When Toronto lefty Rob Rasmussen (Orleans, 2008-09) retired Boston slugger David Ortiz on Tuesday night, it was the major league debut – but not the Fenway Park debut – for the former Orleans standout. 

      Cleveland rookie left-hander Kyle Crockett (Orleans, 2012) became the first member of baseball’s 2013 draft class to make it to the major leagues.

     Right-handed pitcher David Aardsma (Falmouth, 2002) has decided to stay in Memphis.

     Kolten Wong is in St. Louis and David Aardsma is in limbo.

     The Yarmouth-Dennis Red Sox and manager Scott Pickler have formally announced three additions to the team’s coaching staff for the 2014 season.

     Baltimore Orioles catcher Matt Wieters (Orleans, 2006) got good news this week – he will not have to undergo Tommy John surgery on his ailing right (throwing) elbow.

      Cape Cod Baseball League Hall of Famer David Aardsma (class of 2010) may be back in the big leagues by next week.

     Rookie right-hander Marcus Stroman (Orleans, 2010/11) became the 11th former Cape Cod League player to make his major league debut this spring.

     C.J. Cron (Cotuit, 2010), the Los Angeles Angels’ first-round draft choice in 2011, made his major league debut a memorable one Saturday as he collected three hits in five at-bats to help the Angels beat the Texas Rangers 5-3.

     Two members of the 2012 Yarmouth-Dennis Red Sox pitching staff are off to good starts in the minor leagues.

     Upon their arrival, Wong and Robinson found they were not the only Memphis players who had spent time in the Cape League.
