Brooks Hatch Blog: Rays Assign Cade Gotta to Minor-League Camp

Happy Thursday-Friday, everyone, from the world-wide headquarters (WWHQ) of the Corvallis Knights, your 2016-2017 West Coast League champions!

Alum Cade Gotta (2011, pictured, above) has been assigned to minor-league camp by Tampa Bay. The former San Diego Christian outfielder hit a combined .278 in 121 games at triple-A Durham and double-A Montgomery in 2017, with five homers and 52 RBIs.

He was 1-for-1 (1.000) in his only spring-training appearance with the Rays. He started in their organization in 2014 and has steadily moved up the ladder.

Infielder Peter Van Gansen (2013) was assigned to minor-league camp by San Diego. He played at three levels in 2017, topping out with El Paso in the triple-A Pacific Coast League, where he hit .274 in 21 games. Peter played at Cal Poly.
