May 14, 2006 - Midwest League (MWL1)
Quad Cities River Bandits News Release


LHP Adam Daniels has been activated from the Disabled List and is scheduled to start Monday night, the St. Louis Cardinals announced Sunday. To make room, RHP Josh Wilson has been transferred back to extended spring training.

Daniels, 23, was placed on the DL backdated to April 26 after pulling his hamstring running between starts. The native of North Vancouver, Canada, was 1-3 with a 5.57 ERA before the injury, dropping three consecutive starts after winning his first outing of the season at Kane County on April 9. Daniels was selected by the Cardinals in the 15th round of the 2005 draft out of Oklahoma State.

Wilson, 19, was initially promoted from extended spring training on April 28 to jump into a rotation that had three starters on the DL. With two of those three starters- Daniels and Cory Meacham - back on the active roster, Wilson returns to extended spring training having gone 0-2 with a 9.00 ERA in three starts for the Swing.

UP NEXT: The Swing of the Quad Cities will continue their four-game series in Burlington on Sunday. RHP Cory Meacham (1-2, 5.57) is set to take the hill against RHP Carlos Rosa (2-3, 2.64). First pitch is scheduled for 2:00 p.m., with coverage on Progressive Talk AM-1270 beginning at 1:45 p.m.

The Swing of the Quad Cities roster currently stands at 25 active players, the maximum allowed by the Midwest League. An updated roster is included in this release.

NEXT HOMESTAND: After a 12-game trip around the Midwest League, the Swing will return to John O'Donnell Stadium on May 20 for an eight-game homestand. Quad Cities will welcome two in-state rivals to town, as the Clinton LumberKings come in on May 20 and the Cedar Rapids Kernels visit starting May 25.

UPCOMING PROMOTIONS: Saturday, May 20 will be John Deere' Employee's Night with fireworks brought to you by i-wireless, KWQC, and Q106.5. Sunday, May 21, will be a Mix 96 Family Fun Day, followed by a Q106.5 $1 Monday on May 22. If you have been waiting for Wild West Night, that is coming up on May 25 in conjunction with a 97 Rock/Pluckers Thirsty Thursday. Your favorite characters from the Rugrats will be at John O'Donnell Stadium on May 26 thanks to Mediacom, Baseball America, and Star 93.5. The busy homestand will conclude with a baseball cap (Mountain Dew, 97 Rock, Fox-18) giveaway on May 27 and another Mix 96 Family Fun Day on May 28 - also Scott County YMCA's day at the ballpark with post-game fireworks sponsored in part by KWQC/KUUL/WOC.
