Magicians Acquire All-Star Second Baseman

The Herkimer Magicians have quickly entered the trading fray, acquiring All-star second baseman Jeff Kent from the defending champion Ybor City Rollers for OF prospect Adam "Don't Call me Pac-Man" Jones.

"We have a lot of depth in the outfield and decided that we could part with a good young prospect in Jones. We had the ability to acquire a star player at a position of need in Jeff and we are continuing to try to improve our roster for next season," Owner/GM Tim Farmer said in a press statement.

The fact that the Magicians were able to add to their roster without having to cut into their 20 man protected list should not go unnoticed, and allows them to drop one of their outfielders or relievers.
