Former G-Stros in AAA - 2012

Some guys just didn't quite make the MLB rosters of their teams.  Some never had a shot.  But all are just a phone call away from the show. 

Victor Garate - Brewers (Greeneville 2005) - Will be working out of the pen in Nashville this season.

Jordan Lyles - Astros (Greeneville 2008) - Will be refining his art in Oklahoma City for a while this year. I would expect him to be the first pitcher up this season.

Jordan Parraz - Braves (Greeneville 2004) - Will be hoping to make the short drive to Atlanta from Gwinnett after just missing the 25 man roster.

J. R. Towles - Twins (Greeneville 2004) - Will be battling for a shot back in the majors in Rochester.  They have three catchers on the roster with MLB experience.

Amedeo Zazueta - Padres (Greeneville 2006) - Still hanging in there after taking the wildest route to AAA.
