Day 4 Done! Signings News!

Day 4/Round 4 is done.

Brooklyn shored up it's bullpen today by signing two relief pitchers. Closer Samuel Alfano, the Wolves closer since Day 1 and the all-time leader in saves has re-signed with the Wolves this year for $1.5 million for 1 year. Alfano led the league in saves last year with 37 and has 214 saves in his career. He'll be joined in the bullpen by reliever Pedro Morales who signed a five year deal for a bit over $5 million per year. Morales split last year between Seattle and Danville. He saved 28 games while posting a stingy 1.24 ERA.

Houston acquired 2B Steffan Gehring by signing him to a two year deal worth a bit under $4 million per year. The second baseman was with New York last year where he hit .286 with 15HR and 76RBI and won the Slick Fielder Award.

Third Baseman Michael House joins the South Bay Scorpions, inking a one year deal for $550,000. House played 42 games for Houston last year, mostly as a bench player. He had 60AB, hitting .300 with two home runs.

Next sim -- Saturday night.
