Former Monarchs Return to Seattle

Seattle today re-acquired two former Monarchs, giving up some draft capital in the process. Seattle sent its third and eighth round picks in next year's draft to Norfolk in exchange for pitcher Teddy "Gravedigger" O'Herlihy and third baseman Charles Cluett.

"We just couldn't quit Teddy and Charles," said Seattle Owner/GM Mack Shultz. When we learned there was a chance to reacquire them, and rebuild our depth, we were very excited."

O'Herlihy has a 3.27 ERA in 20 relief appearances for the Tides while Cluett is struggling as a reserve, hitting just .237.

Seattle also acquired Norfolk's 15th round pick in the trade, for reasons known only to Shultz.
