The Binghamton Rumble Ponies made a long list of roster moves on Saturday including putting outfielder Tim Tebow on the 7-day disabled list a few days after he left a game earlier with a wrist/hand injury.

Tebow is hitting .273/.336/.399 with 14 doubles and six home runs in 84 games.

Right-handed pitcher Ricky Knapp was also placed in the DL. He was removed after only one inning on Thursday with no injury given at this point.

Another right-handed starter, Harol Gonzalez, was placed on the temporarily inactive list. He has allowed 15 earned runs in 11 innings over his first two starts for Binghamton. He had a 2.82 ERA and 1.10 WHIP for the St. Lucie Mets before his promotion to Double-A.

Right-hander Kevin McGowan and outfielder Patrick Biondi were both transferred to the Rumble Ponies from the Triple-A Las Vegas 51s.

The final roster move was the addition of third baseman William Toffey to the roster. He was acquired from the Oakland Athletics earlier on Saturday along with right-handed reliever Bobby Wahl in return for New York Mets long-time reliever Jeurys Familia.
