C-Notes 2049.09 - Another New Cougar, Another POW
Posted: Tue Jan 04, 2022 1:35 pm
On 2 June 2049, the Charlotte Cougars acquired 2B Francisco Arredondo from the Sacramento Mad Popes in exchange for AA SP Boulos Naim and S-A CF George Pederson.
Arredondo immediately did what we have come to expect from star players that get traded to Charlotte - in his first week with the team he earned the JL Player of the Week award. In his first 6 games as a Cougar, Arredondo went .435 /.458/.913 with 3 HRs, a triple, 7 runs scored, 5 RBIs, and 3 SBs.
Arredondo seems to be fitting in quite nicely in Charlotte. He has now played 17 games with the Cougars and finds himself hitting .344/.400/.875 with 8 HRs, 19 runs scored, and 15 RBI since putting on the pinstripes.
GM Golden commented, "I've coveted Frankie and his skills for years. I could never quite pry him out of Twin Cities and Sacramento came on strong when he hit Free Agency. I'd like to keep him longer but unless we can make some room under the cap......well, we'll see what happens. For now, he's a Cougar and he's going to be a big help in getting us back to the playoffs this season."
