Tom Mastny was still in the system? What?I thought he fell off a cliff like two years ago.
Signed Mastny back on March 1:

Short-lived return.
Matny ended up getting signed by Marlins organization.
Wasn't Valadez a catcher?
Valadez was a catcher but was converted into a pitcher last fall.
I don't recall if I should already know about Dioris Robles getting released or not... but I thought he was a toolsy teenage outfielder with some upside. Any word on why they pulled the plug so quick?
I don't see Adam Miller on clevelandindians.com 40-man roster list.
I don't see him on your Released List.
I thought he was still on the 40-man. Any clarification on him? And any word on his status by the way?
Yeah, I answered the Robles issue a month back in an inbox:

Basically an issue with his real identity came up, and the Indians ultimately just decided to release him.
Also, on Adam Miller, check today's post in Minor Happenings. he is still in the organization and is currently progressing well in a return to throw program.
