La DMO, quiza algo sorprendente, ha ascendido a Santiago Quintanilla, 3B, ano 23, a la plantilla de las grandes ligas (los Kernels), y este jugador seleccionado de 2061 (quinta ronda, o la 151a seleccion global) pondra de titular la tercera base en lugar de Felix "Matchbox" Parreno, ano 35, quien ha sido puesto en lista de exencion, y cuyo inicio de temporada con un promedio de bateo de .129 en 25 partidos no convence al gerente Mel Jenkins.
No obstante, esta movida tan brusca con Parreno, a quien le faltan 12 jonrones (cuadrangulares) para alcanzar los 500 en su carrera, se da en un contexto especial; ademas, Parreno ya cuenta esta temporada con 10 bases robadas.
Quintanilla, por su parte, lleva un impresionante promedio de bateo de .377 en 30 partidos para los Providence Bees (nivel doble-A) y, ademas, posee un brazo de cohete. Quintanilla, apodado "El Centelleante", viene de Memphis, TN, hogar del gerente general, J. Ramirez.
"Estoy seguro de que eso no tuvo nada que ver con la decisión del equipo," dijo Jibwa Smortningaling.

The DMO, perhaps somewhat surprisingly, has promoted Santiago Quintanilla, a 23-year-old third baseman, to the major league roster (the Kernels). This draftee from 2061 (fifth round, or the 151st overall pick) will start at third base in place of Felix Parreno, a 35-year-old player who has been placed on waivers, and whose season debut with a .129 batting average in 25 games has not convinced manager Mel Jenkins.
However, this abrupt move involving Parreno, who is just 12 home runs short of reaching the 500 mark in his career comes in a special context; moreover, Parreno already has accumulated 10 stolen bases this season.
Quintanilla, for his part, boasts an impressive .377 batting average in 30 games for the Providence Bees (Double-A level) and also possesses a rocket arm. Quintanilla, nicknamed "El Centelleante" [The Scintillating One], hails from Memphis, TN, home of general manager J. Ramirez.
"I'm sure that had nothing to do with the team's decision," Jibwa Smortningaling said.
