The Thornhill Reds have signed Scarborough native Patrick Orr for the 2018 season. Orr played collegiately for Allegheny College in Pennsylvania, graduating after four seasons in 2017. He was used as a closer his final two years of school, while also handling the brunt of the catching throughout his college career. Thornhill is excited to add a quality bullpen piece to their staff, and a talented hitter and catcher to an already deep lineup.
The Reds also added IF Ben Teplin to the talent pool, signing the rookie from Indiana U of Pennsylvania. The former Toronto Met product becomes the sixth active Red to play for the elite program out of the North York area. Joining Ben on the 2018 Reds roster are OF Sean Sutton, 1B/OF Gianfranco Morello, C/3B Jake Hillier, 2B Zach Lampreia, and fellow rookie LHP Ben Brown.
