Raynor returning
Outfielder John Raynor, who led the 2009 Zephyrs in hits, runs and stolen bases, will be rejoining New Orleans shortly. Raynor was selected by the Pittsburgh Pirates in the Rule V draft over the offseason, and had to stick with Pittsburgh the entire season or be offered back to the Marlins for a $25,000 fee. The Pirates designated Raynor for assignment last week, and tried to work out a trade with the Marlins to retain Raynor, but were unable to do so, so the speedster is back in the Florida organization.
No Raynor tonight, but here is the lineup as the Z’s and I-Cubs conclude the four-game series:
CF Bonifacio
LF Petersen
3B Luna
1B Lane
SS Murphy
RF Cousins
C Hayes
2B Richar
P Lawrence
