I didn’t even realize my comment on one of your posts could be used in a mailbag so I was pleasantly surprised that you answered it here! I was definitely referring to Sac roster, most specifically Diaz and Garza would be the two guys but I didn’t fully realize that Trent only logged three innings in AA last year probably should’ve looked into that first, but those strikeout numbers are very impressive! As you say, the big league club does not need any immediate help in the pen and hopefully won’t for the rest of this year and possibly next.
A good question is always worth answering! And somebody else had asked it on a post as well. I don’t think you’re wrong about guys like Garza but I do think that time is on their side and protect inventory is always a good watchword
Rog, in the next mailbag (I’ll ask the question again when the call post is on) could you expand on the European IFA market? I knew there are lots of countries that have baseball leagues there but had no idea MLB teams were scouting there, always thought as more of a alternative for players who can’t make it/stay in the majors.
Are many teams scouting there yet?Any promising prospects? From which countries mostly? Could you give us the lay of the land?
Also thanks for the thoughtful answers on my Velasquez and Martin questions!
