This Skeeter is Going to be a Chihuahua

According to Ira Liebman on the Skeeters' broadcast on ESPN 3 on Thursday night, Sugar Land pitcher Michael Nix has been picked up by the San Diego Padres and will join AAA El Paso.  Nix, who spent time with Sugar Land for three straight seasons, posted a 2.00 ERA over five starts(27 IP) in 2014.

Nix was interviewed on the air during Thursday's game and indicated that he will be starting for the Chihuahuas Saturday night in Tacoma.  He joins a Chihuahua rotation that includes another former Skeeter, Jason Lane.

Nix, 31, was purchased by the White Sox from Sugar Land during the 2013 season. He has also spent time in the Atlanta and Colorado organizations during 10 seasons in the minors.
