Under the C’s – OF Alan Roden promoted to Double-A New Hampshire

The most consistent and well-rounded hitter on the Canadians roster is east coast bound, as Right fielder Alan Roden was reassigned to the Double-A New Hampshire Fisher Cats late Monday afternoon.

Along with his consistent play in right field, Roden’s calling card all season in Vancouver was his hitting.  He currently leads the High-A Northwest League with 86 hits and a .321 batting average, while also registering four Home Runs and 41 RBIs in his time in B.C.

Coming to Vancouver to even out the roster will be shortstop Ryan McCarty, who gets the call from Single-A Dunedin.  In 59 games this season for the “little” Blue Jays, McCarty connected with 50 hits in 205 ABs, good enough for a .244 average with 7 jacks on the year.

McCarty is expected to join the C’s on the road, as they travel to Spokane this week for a series with the Indians.
