Clayton Conner Released

Just received an email from the Diamondbacks announcing that they released four players, including former Silver Hawks infielder Clayton Conner.

Conner had a couple of big games for the Silver Hawks at the end of last season, but ultimately hit just .220 in 24 games with South Bend. It was his third stint with the Silver Hawks, playing the end of '07 with the Hawks and the beginning of '08, before an injury shut him down for the rest of the year.

At 23 and most likely ticketed for a return to low-A ball, I'm guessing the Diamondbacks have decided that the time has passed for Conner. We certainly wish him well wherever he ends up.
