As everyone surmised, Matt Stairs has been designated for assignment to make room for Gomes. Of course, that’s the MLB front; not our turf.
So far, only one move has just a couple of moves have been officially announced in the minors…
HAGERSTOWN
• P Gregory Holt assigned from Auburn
(Unofficially, one of our commenters has informed us that RHP Colin Bates is on the way, too)
• P Colin Bates assigned from Auburn
• SS Justino Cuevas activated from Potomac DL and assigned from GCL
AUBURN
• 1B-DH Russell Moldenhauer assigned from Hagerstown Suns.
• P Ben Hawkins assigned to Auburn Doubledays from GCL Nationals

UPDATE: A few moves shuffling the deck between Auburn and Hagerstown, indicated in bold.

Alas, it is true… Bill “The Godfather” Rhinehart and Chris Manno — two of the fan favorites here at NationalsProspects.com — are no longer in the organization. They were the minor-leaguers in today’s trade to acquire Jonny Gomes from the Cincinnati Reds, a move made to bolster the parent club’s bench and perhaps garner an …
