Roster moves as of 10/30

Randy Murphy waived Nate Bostic today and placed Mike MacDonald on the 14-day IR. This most likely means that John Mazzei will be in the lineup on Friday against Texas. Best of luck to Bostic, wherever he may end up. Another kid with a ton of heart.

I don't have a health update on Tyler Fuller, but his two weeks on the IR are up as of tomorrow, so it's a big question mark as to whether he'll be in the lineup or whether he'll be a healthy scratch.

One other transaction today that might be of interest to Scorpions fans, as Amarillo signed Jonathan Ornelas. You might remember Ornelas from his playoff stint with the Scorpions last season. His numbers weren't great (they weren't anything, actually) but he was a workhorse who definitely showed some offensive flare from time to time. I'll be interested to see how he does with the Gorillas

I may be wrong, but I thought that left us with 19 players? So with M. Macdonald on IR Murph should not have to scratch anyone, unless he picked someone else up (like Herauff, saw he just got cut by Rapid City).

Yeah you're absolutely correct. I did my math wrong. We'll see if Murph rotates Fuller as that seventh d-man tonight

Johnathan O is still a great player, saw him play against the Brahmas last night he lead the way for Amarillos first win.

Another interesting fact it seems Frick has lost his "A".
