They could still trade the pick.

I hope they grab a second one. I think we were one of the teams with the most 40-man spots open.

s%*#, that is true.  I hope I didn't speak too soon.

Welp, we have one real OF on the 40-man and we grab a reliever.

I thought a rebuilding club may try to snag Yolbert.

I know this has taken meme format, but with what mediocre relievers are going for this winter, I am all for exploring any of the cheap ways to grab pitching.

There are plenty of no hit/glove IFs out there.

The reliever addition is complete...so any cash needs to go to 2B and LF PLEASE FOR THE LOVE OF GOD. 

Sox take RHP Ernesto Jaquez in minor league phase from Astros.

The Phillies took Noah Song. He has a great story. Navy kid he's pitched half a season in the minors. He has big stuff. Hope he sticks.

Did we lose anyone in the minor league portion?

I agree. Probably the best shot to stick on the roster all year.

Guy has some trouble finding the plate (46 walks in 76 ip)

Phillies selected 7 in the minor league phase; I think the Astros picked 5.

Why not? If you think you've found guys in other systems that can be better/more interesting than what you have, might as well.

I believe that's how we got Narvaez and Yermin.
Sort of surprised we didn't do more, considering that we actually had some success there.  

My first reaction was yawn. But is there really anything with rule 5 that would have been exciting?
