According to the Seattle Post-Intelligencer, the Red Sox have sent right-handed reliever David Aardsma to Seattle for 19 year old left-hander Fabian Williamson. Aardsma, who threw 48 2/3 innings for the Sox last season, will fill up the final spot on the Mariners 40 man roster. Williamson, who spent all last season in single-A Pulaski, striking out 59 batters in 46 2/3 innings, will more than likely begin the season in short-season Lowell.

I’d also like to introduce myself as this is my first post here at Fire Brand. Obviously, my name is Pat and I’m a sophomore at the University of Southern Indiana. I’m a baseball junky and also a big Red Sox fan. My main interests are intensively following players as they progress through the minor leagues and players coming up through the amateur rankings (HS, College). I’ll be joining Fire Brand by frequently posting minor league updates as they come through and analysis on certain players once or twice a week. I also take requests, so shoot me an e-mail if you have a certain player you’d like me to break down.

Hello FireBrand community! Chances are you are looking for something to read today since I totally blew off my article. My bad. I promise to be back in the swing of things, but in the meantime, check out the latest mailbag from the Boston Globe’s Amalie Benjamin. In a great break from the constant coverage of the local nine, Amalie decided to do an entire mailbag dedicated to the prospects of the big club.

Check the link after the jump!

Check out how Amalie compares Lars Anderson to Bill ‘Spaceman’ Lee, Daniel Bard’s future with the team, and the AAAA status of Charlie Zink and the departed David Pauley.
