So, RafRod is ready to make his debut, and is easily the youngest player on the roster. A few other player notes:
• Pichardo's rehab apparently is about to begin
• Munoz is the second youngest on the team, a draftee out of Puerto Rico
• Scoma is the local kid, UC Davis prospect and grew up in Belmont, played at Carlmont and UC Davis.
• Andrew Romo - yes, that Romo. Sergio's little brother.
• Gus Benusa seems to be the highest 2009 draft pick on this roster, an 8th round high schooler. I'm a little surprised he signed.
