Is there enough room to scoop someone up on waivers? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Is there enough room to scoop someone up on waivers? It was at 38. Drop Liriano and Soto (pitcher), moves it to 36. Add Asche, Geo Soto (Catcher) and Swarzak should put it at 39.

GreenSox Posted April 1, 2017 Share Posted April 1, 2017 Not that it matters, but what is the theory behind Cody Asche on the roster? 1200 PAs and .684 OPS. .298 OBP. Just that he hits left-handed? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just that he hits left-handed? I'm sure Blue Jays fans in 2010 were also saying "WTF, why is Jose Bautista on the roster? 29 years old, 1911 plate appearances, and a career .242/.334/.412/.746 95 OPS+ in his career. Stupid." Then he exploded. It is the exception to the rule, but Asche has put up numbers in the minors and he only turns 27 this year. He hit well this spring. His roster spot is perfectly justifiable.

No. They technically have to do something with E Cabrera, Hayes, Delmonico, K Smith, and Burdi. And they have to place Rodon, Tilson, and Minaya on the DL.
