PVBL: Deadwood Outlaws
Outlaws Acquire Gomez

April 30, 1998

The Deadwood Outlaws have traded it's first round draft choice (19th overall) to Galena for INF Chris Gomez.

Deadwood GM Phil Raisor on the trade: "We didn't really think we'd get a major league quality player with the 19th pick, and Gomez is still young enough [25 years old] that we think he could be our thirdbaseman of the future."

Gomez is scheduled to report to AAA Dodge City in the next couple of days.
