When do the actual rosters become available?

 

As Huntsville GM Buck Rogers recently noted, they won't know for sure until the players literally get off the plane at their destinations, which will/should be next Tuesday (seasons begin Thursday).

 

Unless a player tweets his news, we have learned to painstakingly respect the Brewers organization in this regard - we do not pester our affiliate contacts, as we have learned (and respect) the fact that they are under strict orders not to release rosters until told to do so by the big club's front office.

2013's top pick will begin 2014 in extended spring training, as confirmed by Jason Arndt. That doesn't mean he's destined for Helena, he could be bumped up to Appleton prior to that.
