AFL/Offseason Update: Nov. 10, 2021

November 10, 2021

Surprise pushed across a single run in the 4th but the Sagauros ‘pen needed more as they were walked off in the 9th for a 2-1 loss to the Scorpions.

The Nats had two position players sandwiching the ends of the lineup while Cole Henry appeared in long relief.

Jackson Cluff led off and played shortstop. He walked once and struck out twice while going hitless in four plate appearances. In the field, he had one assist.

Israel Pineda (pictured above) was the Surprise DH and went 1-for-3 with one whiff to maintain his .333 fall batting average.

Henry bounced back from Friday’s poor outing to toss four scoreless innings, giving up three hits and a walk while fanning seven to reclaim the league lead with 30 strikeouts in 19 innings pitched.

The Saguaros dropped back into a tie for 1st place with the Desert Dogs with the loss. Surprise is off today but will face Glendale tomorrow afternoon.

MINOR LEAGUE FREE AGENCY
For the first time since 2019, we have a list of the two dozen or so guys who are parting ways with Washington. This is the six-year parole for the Nats’ 2015 Draft class, which produced five MLB players – THREE for the Nationals.

RHPs – Tomas Alastre, Dakota Bacus, Joan Baez, Aaron Barrett, Bryan Bonnell, Bryan Dobzanski, Steven Fuentes, Kyle McGowin, Pearson McMahan, Diego Moreno, Carlos Navas, Ronald Peña, Luis Reyes, Jefry Rodriguez, Mario Sanchez

LHP – Nick Wells

C’s – Juan Paulino, Raudy Read, Jakson Reetz

IFs – Humberto Arteaga, Ali Castillo, Aldrem Corredor, Osvaldo Duarte, Ian Sagdal

OFs – Rafael Bautista, Destin Hood, Daniel Palka, Rhett Wiseman

These are the declared free agents, according to Baseball America. With this being the offseason, it is possible that any omissions could mean that they were re-signed or that they were released, though this year MLB has been a LOT less coy about releases.

    Re: Pearson McMahan. He was a 2017 draftee, and therefore shouldn’t be eligible for free agency yet, right? However, he was drafted and released by the Rockies, so does that alter his timeline for control?

    Otherwise, there’s not much of value lost in that list beyond some AAA bullpen depth, which will no doubt be drawn upon in 2022.

      “…and/or if the player has been previously released or non-tendered in his career and his present contract (known as a “second contract” even if it’s his third or fourth minor[-]league contract) has expired.”

      Juan Paulino was drafted in 2018, so it appears that the clause above (per The Cub Reporter) applies. What wouldn’t surprise me, however, is if this applies only when the big club refuses to renew the contract. But it could also be like an outright (i.e. you can only be removed from a 40-man roster once without consent).

      This has probably not come up because most MLFAs are past the six-year mark OR both sides want to continue.

    That’s a whole, WHOLE lotta guys we’ve followed for a long, long time. I’m sure several will re-sign, of course, but for those who don’t, best wishes and happy trails.

    Lee outdoes himself again.

    It’s hard for context with all these releases as we have no idea who is re-signed. Both Steven Fuentes and Kyle McGowin entered the offseason injured and if healthy again can definitely produce in the future.

    Some of the names are longtime members of the organization, like Ian Sagdal who finished his 7th year. This was Raudy Reed’s 11th year.
    Nick Wells is a local guy.

    McGowin was doing great until Davy over used him. I do wish Davy was a little better at managing his bullpen.
