Las Vegas, Quebec City Agree to Swap
Sunday, December 28th , 2014
It took some time to iron out the details, but the Rollers and Admirals have agreed to a swap. Quebec City will get 23-year old minor league SS Michal Matousek and 20-year old minor league RHP Kyle Coleman with Las Vegas receiving 31-year old LF Jaquan Taylor and $4,160 in cash in return. A source close to the trade talks said the two clubs were initially looking to make a bigger deal, but discussions broke off late last night. The two sides reconvened early today and eventually settled on this deal.
In his career, Taylor is batting .227 with 144 hits, 17 doubles, 2 triples and 20 home runs.

Sherbrooke, Albany Trade Made
Sunday, December 28th , 2014
You can focus on the negatives after being traded to a new team -- finding a new place to stay, leaving teammates and friends, having to start anew -- but one player hopes to focus on the positives. "It means I'm wanted somewhere. At least one team sees potential in me." Those were the comments heard after the Sherbrooke Canadians came to an agreement to deal 33-year old minor league LF Rob Corkle and $1,520 in cash to the Albany Senators for 32-year old RHP Pedro Hernandez earlier today. The deal is expected to be formally announced later this evening.
Sherbrooke will retain a portion of Corkle's remaining contract.
Corkle has a lifetime .244 average and .375 on-base percentage in his career with 318 hits, 50 doubles, 3 triples, 58 home runs, 178 RBIs and 182 runs scored.
In his career, Hernandez has fashioned a 49-41 mark, 3.54 ERA and thrown 834.2 innings. Opposing clubs are batting .222 lifetime against him and he has logged 960 career strikeouts.
