OT: Former UConn Baseball star Mike Olt to Red Sox

[UConnStats]

Welcome back to New England, Mike. It would be awesome if it finally clicked for Olt, who's once promising career was derailed by vision issues/injuries.

As a reminder, Matt Barnes is still in Boston's pen. Olt will be playing in AAA Pawtucket.

Husky proud, yes.

Maybe starting in AA Portland first...

Branford’s Mike Olt signs minor league deal with Red Sox

More importantly Yanks sign Chris Carter

 

[Palatine]

He has as much power as the best major league hitters but his strikeout rate has been close to 40%. Best of luck to Mike.

BTW, Portland visits Hartford at the beginning of May.

At first glance, I thought that was Mel Ott.

You mean Norwich don't you?
