CATS NAME STEED AS NEW MANAGER 
The Border Cats are proud to announce that Mike Steed will be the team's new field manager for the 2010 season. The native of Burlington, ON is the first Canadian to manage the Cats and is the eighth manager in franchise history. Steed was an assistant coach with the Border Cats this past season and General Manager Brad Jorgenson was pleased to hire from within. "As assistant coach in 2009, Mike is very familar with the league and the organization, and he has the ability to maximize the number of returning players. "Through his contacts with Baseball Canada, Mike also has the opportunity to hopefully recruit some of the top Canadian talent as well." Steed has plenty of previous experience at both the college and summer collegiate levels. The 39 year old worked in the Great Lakes Summer Collegiate League as manager of the Lake Erie Monarchs in Toledo, OH and as pitching coach with the Michigan Panthers in Ypsilanti, MI. Steed has also served as pitching coach at Madonna University in Livonia, MI and as associate head coach at Concordia University in Ann Arbor, MI. Mike has also worked as Ontario scout for the Minnesota Twins and as a pitching instructor with the Toronto Blue Jays youth summer camps. The new Cats manager is eager to get started for next year. "I would like to thank Brad and Janice Jorgenson and the entire Border Cats organization for the opportunity to return to Thunder Bay and manage the ballclub in 2010. "I believe the Northwoods League is the premier summer league and I look forward to the task of building a championship roster for the Border Cats organization and their fans." Steed replaces Joel Barta, who elected not to return for family reasons. Despite a poor start, the Cats steadily improved under Barta going 21-16 after July 1st and finished 27-41 overall.

The Border Cats are proud to announce that Chris Curley has signed a free agent contract with the Atlanta Braves. Curley was injured June 16th in Alexandria when he broke a bone in his left hand after being hit by a pitch. The third baseman from Fort Mitchell, KY is still rehabilitating his injured hand, but he will report to the Braves single "A" team in Danville, Virginia in the Appalachian League. Curley will be a teammate in Danville with former Border Cats first baseman Derek Wiley who was drafted by the Braves in the MLB draft last month. Curley, who played his collegiate ball at Campbellsville University in Kentucky, was in his third season with the Border Cats. He is the team's all-time leader in games played (140), at bats (522), hits (137), home runs (13), doubles (63), and runs batted in (63).
