Cut me Mick, cut me

The first round of players banished to minor league camps came yesterday. Not that some of them still can't appear in ST games.

Erik Goeddel
Steven Matz
Josh Edgin
Wilfredo Tovar
Cesar Puello
Logan Verrett
Adam Kolarek
Jack Leathersich
John Church
Chasen Bradford
Dustin Lawley
Brandon Nimmo
Cory Vaughn
Danny Muno
Kevin Plawecki

Edgin this early seems like the only real surprise.

I might have thought that Tovar would stick around a little longer too, since shortstop is pretty unsettled, but I suppose that if they need him he won't be far away.

I'd have to look up the rules again. I think minor leaguers can appear in games willy nilly but guys on the 40 man option to the minors can't?

I believe that is the rule, yes. Minor league spring games start Friday.

Jack "Chipotle Rocket" Leathersich was excused to go retreive the ball Giancarlo "Mike" Stanton hit off him the other day. Last seen in Valdosta, Ga.

All you pitchers heading north with up take one step forward ... not so fast there -
Noah Syndergaard
Rafael Montero

Ryan Reid

Also cut were catcher Juan Centeno along with 1Bs Brandon Allen and Matt Clark

I thought Allen went down weeks ago, but I guess the injuries to Davis and Duda stayed the cut-man's hand.

Checking the sheet here, he sure got plenty of chances: 4-23 with one walk and no extra-base hits. That's not gonna do it.

My adoptees, Montero and Centeno, will be the battery at Las Vegas.
Neat.
Hope they will repeat that in the majors later this year.

I suspect we'll see them all at some point this year --probably sooner than later for Wilmer.

Re: Cut me Mick, cut me

Damn. I figured with Muffy's injury and uncertainty elsewhere Flores would stick around till the bitter end.

STILL predicting a Blockbuster!

Interesting to see Nieuwenhuis sent down on the same day dD. He really worked himself back into the picture. Solid spring.

believe this leaves Brown/Duda as the only options for 5th OF after Young^2, Granderson, Lagares

Now, Brown/Doodoo --- that would be a funny platoon.
