I really hope we can hang onto Iglesias in AAA
Anybody got a guess for the final 26? I haven’t been paying as much attention as I’d like to this spring
Do the last three have to go through waivers for us to keep them?
The Luke Voit experiment is over!
I cannot say I pity Fujinami whatsoever. The guy is a fool for choosing and trusting Boras.
We saw it already last year at the O’s. The guy needs to spend time in a pitching lab. He should have picked a team immediately after the season ended and spend the whole offseason becoming better. Instead he signs when ST starts and then misses time due to a visa issue and personal affairs. The guy never learns.
Boras might be an excellent agent in the past, but this offseason the “wait-and-hold”-strategy has cost his clients money and most of them are not ready for the start of the season (Snell, Monty, Martinez, Fujinami and many more). With all the modern technology at a club at your disposal, you simply cannot maintain your fitness on your own at an old dirt field in the same way…
Wow, Luke finally got his due
Nidoking 😩
We gotta get Fuji in the lab + whoever overhauled Christian Scott
Adams has been complete ass this whole Spring Training. Hoping he never sees the major league roster at all. Iglesias and Fuji I hope we can hang onto.
Finally nido is gone. I get that his role was a backup catcher, but he would consistently put up some of the least competitive at bats I’ve ever seen and it felt like he was playing 50-60% of the games. Gross
Bye bye Bick
Can we keep Nido in AAA or is he going to get cut? It won’t be a huge loss, but Nido is solid for a third string catcher.
