First FA signing in Stars history

One day it may be a trivia question so write this down. VB Stars sign P- Armando Delgado to a 4 year deal. Delgado 30, will receive 1.18 million per season for his services. "This is exciting news for fans and the organization", manager DJ Basebol was quoted as saying.

In what is being billed as Phase III of an organizational project to building a expansion team management could not be happier. There are still a few holes yet to fill, but we're keeping our fingers crossed that we'll field a team worthy of the fan base.

Rule 5 draft complete

The Virginia Beach Stars added 5 players to their roster, SP R. Cartwright, MR G. Chubb, MR M. Díaz, SP P. Ortega, and SP A. Olivas in the 2012 rule 5 draft giving us some semblance of a pitching staff. The number of Stars players hopeful of making the ML staff has now increased to 9. With free agency next on the agenda will the trend of signing pitchers continue? There are 18 position players in camp, but it's looking that with each passing day only 10 will start in the bigs while the remaining 8 are delegated to their respective minor league levels.

What's next?  Stay tuned !
