From right to left in the video, the players are: Victor Estevez, Yonata Ortega, Ender Inciarte, Ramon Castillo, Rafael Quezada, Diogenes Rosario, and Randy Rodriguez.

Today's Roster Moves
Four of them for you today....
RHP Adam Worthington joins team from extended spring training.
INF Victor Estevez rejoins the team from high-A Visalia.
C Jae Yun Kim sent back to extended spring training.
LHP Keny Sosa released from Diamondbacks organization.
Full story is here.
Owen's analysis (which means absolutely nothing):
Worthington is a strong reliever who had great numbers with Missoula, he'll be a welcome addition to the bullpen and hopefully can be a strong 7th or 8th inning type.
Sosa was getting too old to be at this level, and unfortunately just wasn't performing up to the level the Diamondbacks wanted. He is free to sign with any other team, and we wish him the best of luck.
Kim was just here to fill in while Hollinger was hurt. Three catchers are rarely needed, and with Van Winkle and Hollinger hitting as well as they have been, Kim wasn't going to get the playing time he needs to develop. He'll end up with Missoula or Yakima, and likely will be back with South Bend next year (if not sooner).
Finally, Estevez is a solid utility player who can play anywhere on the diamond, which is why he went up to Visalia in the first place. He certainly won't play every day, but he's good to have if somebody else needs a day off. You'd like to see his average go up from the .200 mark he's been around all season (at both South Bend and Visalia).

Roster Move
Greeting from Lansing. We get you started today with a roster move.
INF Matt Helm joins the Silver Hawks from extended spring training.
INF Victor Estevez promoted to high-A Visalia.
C Ryan Babineau played on the 7-day DL retroactive to April 30th with a left hip strain.
Full story can be found at http://www.silverhawks.com/.
My brief analysis: Helm is a 7th rounder, so you like adding him to a roster full of prospects already. Estevez gets called up to fill the void left by the Navarro trade (Estevez is older, and probably a better fit in high-A right now). Babineau's injury has me concerned. He went back to Arizona for further evaluation.

From the Notes (April 15th)
A couple of interesting notes (some updated from yesterday) to get you started today. I'm going to take some pictures from the ballpark today, and post them before the game.
-The Silver Hawks are one of four teams in Minor League Baseball without a win so far (Palm Beach, Erie, New Britain).
- South Bend has scored first in five of the first seven games this season.
-Victor Estevez went 3-for-3 yesterday, and is now 4-for-6 on the season.
-Hawks have moved up to 11th in team hitting, but remain 16th in team pitching despite allowing just two runs yesterday (but the gap between the Silver Hawks and the 15th place team is getting smaller)

Walk Offs Are Fun
To borrow a line from Lance McAlister, my favorite sports talk show host in Cincinnati and a former WSBT sports anchor here in South Bend:
I LOVE WINNING!
It makes it so much easier to broadcast winning games than losses, and last night's walk off win was certainly no exception.
How about Alfredo Marte hitting the team's first homer since June 9th?
How about Victor Estevez coming through in the clutch with a walk off bases loaded single?
How about Bryan Woodall with another three scoreless innings in relief? He's been pitching great for the last month.
How about two balks being called in the ninth inning, one against each team?
Awesome.
