Ottawa Champions News Release
Ottawa, ON - The Ottawa Champions have picked up another arm, agreeing to terms with formers Cincinnati Reds prospect Drew Cisco.
The 23-year-old right-hander was drafted in the sixth round by Cincinnati in 2010, and pitched three season in their system, topping out last year at High-A Bakersfield.
Overall he finished his minor league career with a 14-14 record and a 5.01 ERA in 66 appearances, all starts.
In another move, the Champions eased up their outfield logjam, shipping Chris Duffy to the Fargo-Moorhead RedHawks in exchange for future considerations.
Duffy was acquired by Ottawa earlier in the offseason along with pitcher Alan DeRatt from the Sioux Falls Canaries.
The players will be arriving in Ottawa soon, as they prepare for Spring Training, which will take place May 10-20, along with an exhibition game at Raymond Chabot Grant Thornton Park on May 17th against the Trois Rivieres Aigles.
Opening Day will follow shortly thereafter on May 22nd at 7:05 pm at RCGT Park against the Sussex County Miners.
