Still Quiet on the Minor-League Front

Unconfirmed: Alex Bregman on Throwback Night

While there’s suddenly plenty of news on the MLB side of things, it’s mostly the kind of things we hear too much about from the current administration (lying, cheating, hypocrisy).

On the minor-league side, things are are still quiet. Sorry, but Boomer will still snore through 4A signings like Mac Williams, as he should.

The news that another Dominican ballplayer dying in a motor vehicle accident is sad—regardless of whether or not he was a National—but hardly a surprise. If you haven’t already seen it, I highly recommend looking for HBO’s Real Sports story from 2017.

Finally, the The F-Nats claim that the new ballpark is on schedule. Single-game tickets remain unavailable for purchase. Officials say they will be put on sale in March.

  1. I chuckled at the Vegas odds on the board here in Reno for the Astros 13/2 to win the 2020 WS.
    Sleep deep, Spike until 2/2/2020

    1. Anybody want to counter this idea? If the Reds move on from Dietrich and sign Brook Holt would Dietrich accept a Fresno fate ??

    2. One would think , Todd, Luke, Grissom and squires that the Nats won’t sign as many minor league free agents
      As the Padres . Listing found in NY Times transactions section yesterday

        1. I’m not sure – we’d need a medium to speak to Spike, since he passed away in 2012. I’m hoping that the BA top 100 will get them off their asses in Durham; I check every morning before digging into the watchlist work.

          2. Dakota Bacus and Bryan Bonnell back but not Derek Self
            Reds add another interesting depth piece in Boog Powell.

  3. The more things change the more the song remains the same. The Astros investigation
    Being done by a different generation of clowns who shut down the 1994 season … right Forinicane???

        1. One time zone closer.
          I guess conversation cannot stir Spike
          Angels signing rebound guys in Huff and Manipy
          Like Nats like to do

          1. There has been a weird dearth of MiLB/NRI signings being reported for the Nats. Javy back, Abad back, David Hernandez, Carlos Tocci, Mac Williamson…that’s about it. Bleh. Infielder market seems to have stalled out, imagine we bring one or two of those guys to camp.

          2. I guess the jury is still out on the senators alum site listing Ward and Bichette Jr as re- signed .

          3. Luke. You saw G Lara and K Williams late last summer . Are they ready for the Sens infield corners ??

          4. Much depends on the FAs that get assigned to AA… unless the market picks up, we could see a lot of social promotions like we did in the ’00s.
