Shelby Ford Released

I guess no one considers Shelby Ford to be a prospect any more, but many Pirate fans once had high hopes for him. According to "Minor Matters" at the bottom of the article linked below, he's been released. The article also says that Zach Dodson has been promoted to Low-A WV and comments about how well John Bowker has been contributing at Indy:

Seems like so long ago that Ford was actually a prospect. He was never much of a prospect, but when an organization has next to nothing the mediocre ones stand out more.
