Lansing Lugnuts Roster Transaction

LANSING, Mich. – The Lansing Lugnuts, in conjunction with the Toronto Blue Jays, announced Thursday that outfielder Kenny Wilson has been placed on the 7-day Disabled List retroactive to May 3.  In a corresponding move, third baseman Mark Sobolewski has been activated from the Disabled List.

A native of Tampa, Florida, Wilson, 20, was drafted by the Toronto Blue Jays in the 2nd round of the 2008 Amateur Draft.  In his second year in Lansing, he was batting .278 with 12 stolen bases and a .412 on-base percentage in 21 games.

The 23-year-old Sobolewski had been placed on the DL on April 29.  At the time, he was batting .333 with two home runs and nine RBIs in 14 games.  Similar to Wilson, this is Sobolewski second season with the Lugnuts.

  1. per his Facebook page, Wilson apparently has a sprained ankle.

    Presumably mild since he mentioned it a couple of days before he went on the DL

  2. Southpaw,

    Thanks for the details bro! Tough injury for an outfielder/speed guy to play through. Hope it's minor.
