OK, ran the below quiz all goofy. Here thanks to reader input are the official numbers of the new arrivals:
4 Argenis Reyes, INF
9 Marlon Anderson, UT
22 Ramon Martinez, INF
29 Gustavo Molina, C
32 Carlos Muniz, RHP
36 Al Reyes, RHP
39 Bobby Parnell, RHP
44 Brandon Knight, RHP
49 Jon Niese, LHP
73 Ricardo Rincon, LHP
Brandon Knight, who was 28 last time around, has switched to No. 44, even though an argument could be made for 22. Gustavo Molina also arrives in a new number; he was 6 when he showed up last. The 49 of Niese and 36 of Al Reyes represent uniforms available as the result of Ruddy Lugo and Willie Collazo being dropped from the 40-man roster, respectively. The recall of Muniz is his fifth this year (to accompany 4 demotions).
Welcome aboardick!

Just wondering, where are we on the all-time list? I think we’re in the 800’s but can’t find anything in the archives after Tom Glavine being #700.

Good question. I believe we are up to 844 with Ayala and with the five new ones on the way will get to 849 by year-end. Had Ruddy Lugo “counted” it woulda been 850 even.
No. 800 was Moises Alou, opening day of 2007. Remember that guy?

OK, this is my first time at this site. I must say, it’s very odd, but might compliment my obsessive compulsive disorder well.
