This is a bit off topic but the Thunder have a lot of guys 26 and older on their roster, 14 by my count from minorleaguebaseball.com (not including Shemp). The Sea Dogs have only have 7 guys that old or older. Why are they doing this? Is it roster filler? Do some teams do this for instructional reasons? Wouldn't they rather fill the roster with younger guys in AA?
You can sign younger ml FA but then the team isn't as competitive and most ml FA aren't prospects so signing the older guys doesn't hurt you too much. This is more likely a reflective of the fact that the Yankees don't have a bunch of Jeremy West Brandon Moss type roster filler.

[quote]The new guys came through. George Kottaras and Brian Myrow bashed two-run homers Thursday night to lead the Portland Sea Dogs to a 10-3 victory against the Trenton Thunder in the Eastern League playoffs before 4,765 at Waterfront Park.
Myrow joined the Sea Dogs last month; Kottaras arrived Wednesday.
Portland's victory evened up this best-of-five Northern Division series at 1-1.[/quote]

[quote] If things don't work out, the Blue Rocks will be kicking themselves over this one.
Frederick earned just one hit, yet won 2-1 at Frawley Stadium on Thursday night to tie the best-of-three Carolina League Northern Division playoff series at one game each.[/url]
