2062.56 Flyers add depth as rosters expand

[Krathan]

As the calendar turns to September, BBA teams are allowed to add players to their roster beyond the normal 27. The Charlotte Flyers have added three players to the roster, with another likely being added next week.

Onan Ogun was sent to Richmond for a week prior to roster expansion when the Flyers added Bob Anderson from the Zombies. He has spent most of the year on the big league roster and was only sent down because he has options and the team knew they would be able to bring him right back up.

Tsuyoshi Mori was recalled from Richmond to add another left handed pitcher to the bullpen. Mori has pitched well in his previous opportunities earlier this season.

Bharti Senagala was also added to the roster. Senagala is a versatile super-utility player who is a solid base runner. This will be Senagala's major league debut. He posted 3.9 WAR with 20 home runs and 60 RBI for Richmond this season. He was acquired at last year's trade deadline in the Jim Fleming trade.

Brody Picot was added to the Injured List for the upcoming week due to back spasms. He is expected to rejoin the club next week.

It is also possible that Felipe Cummings will join the Flyers roster as a member of the bullpen next week. The front office is still deciding whether to bring him up or let him wait until next Spring to pitch again.
