South Bend Silver Hawks News Release
South Bend, IN - In conjunction with the Arizona Diamondbacks, the South Bend Silver Hawks have announced that RHP Brad Wilson has joined the team from short-season A Yakima. He is in uniform for Monday's doubleheader against the Great Lakes Loons but is expected to start on Tuesday at Dow Diamond in the series finale.
Wilson was a 33rd round selection by the Diamondbacks in last June's draft from Cal Poly Pomona. He appeared briefly with South Bend in 2009, pitching 4.1 scoreless innings over two games in relief last July.
Most of Wilson's 2009 season was spent with the Yakima Bears, where he was 2-3 with a 5.65 ERA in 18 appearances (five starts). Wilson walked 27 but struck out 39 in 36.2 inning for Yakima last season.
Wilson was 0-2 with a 7.80 ERA in three starts for Yakima this season. He has allowed 20 hits in 15.0 innings, while walking nine and striking out 11. He also made one appearance for triple-A Reno in a fill-in role, allowing just three runs but taking the loss.
The South Bend roster currently stands at 25 active players plus three on the disabled list. The Midwest League allows for 25 active players.
The Silver Hawks take on the Great Lakes Loons in a doubleheader Monday evening at Dow Diamond in Midland, Michigan at 6:05 PM Eastern Time. Pregame coverage begins at 5:45 PM on 1620 ESPN Radio. For more information about the Silver Hawks or to purchase tickets, please visit www.silverhawks.com.
