    We refused to improve backup C, RF and 2B.

    Ian Clarkin was a Hartford Yard Goat in 2021, not sure what he's up to now though. 

  • Man Collins has to be questioning a lot of things right now.  All his own doing, but woof.   I suspect Ciuffo is our backup and Seby gets DFA'd next few days.

He seems to be able to catch a ball AND throw it, so I would say so.

He wasn’t all that much better, and if anything, is worse with the bat than Seby.

With the rest of the line up we have, give me a catcher who can catch.  The rest isn't as important.

Sure but I think there’s someone they can acquire who can catch the ball and provide more offense.

Can someone explain the difference between sending someone to “AAA Charlotte” vs “minor-league camp”?

Giys are optioned when on 40 man roster and reassigned to minor league camp when not on 40 man.

Players on the 40 man roster get sent to Charlotte, or sometimes Birmingham. Players not on the 40 man roster get reassigned to the minor league camp. Both things mean they start the year in the minors.

I don't think anyone on the FA market is even an option, they need someone whose stretched out and ready to go, not someone who will need 3 weeks and be ready by mid-May.
