Railroaders tack on to roster ahead of exhibition games
Railroaders tack on to roster ahead of exhibition games The Cleburne Railroaders announced three new signings over the weekend in preparation for their exhibition games against the Charros de Jalisco on April 15-16. Andres Sosa is a catcher/infielder from Hermosillo, Mexico, who spent his college career with the University of Texas at Austin and Dallas Baptist University. Advertisement Undrafted out of DBU in 2021, Sosa signed with the Toronto Blue Jays organization and has spent the last four years in the minor league system. He reached the double-A level. Sosa joins Cleburne with a .242 career batting average and 42 home runs. Needing depth at the catcher position since the departure of Jaxx Groshans, the Railroaders added a second catcher in Jacob Morrow. Morrow is a rookie entering the 2025 season after two seasons as a Washington State Cougar. In his two years with the program, Morrow batted .291 in 66 games. The Railroaders welcome a different Dillard to Cleburne heading into the exhibitions with right-handed pitcher Trey Dillard. Advertisement The 26-year-old arm from Phoenix, Arizona was drafted by the Los Angeles Dodgers in the 2018 MLB Draft but decided to pursue a college career. After a short stint at San Jacinto College, Dillard played in the Southeastern Conference with Texas A&M University and the University of Missouri. Although he didn't get picked out of college, Dillard was immediately picked up by the Philadelphia Phillies in 2023. In two seasons at the A-ball level, Dillard had a 5.36 ERA and 55 strikeouts. Both exhibition games begin at 5 p.m. at La Moderna Field. Opening Day for Cleburne's 2025 season is set for May 8, at 7 p.m. where the Railroaders take on the Western division champion Winnipeg Godleyes.
