BRIAN ADAMS'S RETURN TO SOMERSET MOUND JUST ONE NUGGET FROM TUESDAY NOTEBOOK
Numerous stories make up each Atlantic League Notebook, a twice-a-week offering exclusively for subscribers. One of Tuesday's stories follows:
Somerset’s last place standing in the Freedom Division with a 6-12 record may look bleak, but it is far too early to count the two-time defending champions out since they only trail division-leading Lancaster by four games (five in the loss column). The Patriots, who have already tried 22 pitchers this season, have bolstered their mound staff with the return of southpaw Brian Adams from Mexico, where he was 2-0 with an imposing 1.07 ERA for 42 innings. Adams won 39 games (39-17) for Somerset the last three years, including 13 one year ago. Somerset has added three left-handed arms of late starting with Bill Pulsipher then Adams and Andrew Dobies, a 24-25 career minor leaguer.
Other highlights of the Tuesday Notebook included:
--The connection between the new Hall of Famers and Atlantic League personnel
--Which Independent league produces the most players for major league organizations? We offer all the details
--How are such Atlantic League alumni as Derrick Ellison, Dane DeLaRosa, Cory Aldridge, Charlton Jimerson, Jay Gibbons, B. J. LaMura and Buzzie Buzachero doing for their major league organizations.
