Outlaws Make Massive Pitching Changes

June 24, 2000

The Deadwood Outlaws, with a league high 6.84 ERA, made wholesale changes in it's pitching staff. Banished to AAA Dodge City are: Rick Aguleria, Mark Leiter (both of whom may be released soon), Felipe Lira, Chan Ho Park, and Jose Rijo. Park and Lira are youngsters, and are being sent down to work on mechanics with minor league pitching coach Gaylord Perry. Brought up to take the open roster spots are Wally Beville, Bob Brooks, Jim Harman, Scott Hayes, and Dick Duncan. Brooks and Harman will take rotation spots for the time being, while the rest will fill out the bullpen.
