AJ got the news today that he is being promoted to AAA Tucson Sidewinders. He will leave Mobile Thurs early morning, and may even get into a game that night.
I am so proud of how well he has done this season after returning to AA ... he learned some new things and applied them and had a great 2 months in Mobile (ending with a 1.53 ERA in 29.1 IP, with a 4/27 BB/K ratio and a WHIP of 0.99).
Life is good !!!!

Super exciting news ... sending wishes for continued success for AJ, and safe travels for his wife, pup, and AJ's mom helping with the cross-country move.
