WHIV 2006 Vol. 10- Bostic returns to Vegas

[recte44]

Not a major trade by any means, but the Hustlers added a left-handed reliever to the bullpen mix in a deal with Greenville.

To Greenville:

Killian Noble
Cedric de Cock

To Las Vegas:

Jerry Bostic

Bostic was with the Hustlers from 2003-2004, appearing in just 10 games but posting outstanding WHIP numbers (0.79 in 2003, 0.40 in 2004). He was originally acquired in a 2003 deadline deal with the Madison Wolves that featured the acquisition of John Catron. He was then dealt to Greenville the next season in a deal that brought Luis Luna to the Hustlers.

Over the last few years, he's struggled with control and homeruns, with ERA in the 5.00-6.00 range. Las Vegas hopes that coming back to the Hustlers can turn his career around.

Killian Noble was given every opportunity to stick with the Hustlers, and ultimately was waived a couple weeks back and cleared waivers. de Cock is a complete throw in.

Bostic was at his best in Madison....
