Gallant pitched in relief yesterday, but allowed 1 run and could not record an out.

It should be pointed out that Gallant pitched at Cedar Rapids in the 2nd half of 2015 due to some injuries. This year, he has skipped Ft. Myers and gone right to Chattanooga, an impressive leap.

Gallant was demoted to Fort Myers to make way for JT Chargios.

Gallant has thrown 18.1 innings this year with 10 strikeouts and 9 walks to go with a 5.40 ERA and a 1-2 record.

Should I make a comment about 2014 vs 2015 or how you didn't knock on wood and got him sent to fort Meyers....

ya, 2014.
