Minor MLB Transactions: 1/11/16

By Jeff Todd | January 11, 2016 at 8:44pm CDT

Here are the day’s minor moves:

  • The Brewers announced today that the minor league contract of southpaw Nick Hagadone has been voided. The live-armed lefty is trying to return from an elbow fracture, which was obviously known beforehand. But “significant issues” arose when his physical was conducted, according to MLB.com’s Adam McCalvy, and that scuttled the deal.
  • The Phillies have brought back lefty Anthony Vasquez on a minor league pact, Jerry Crasnick of ESPN.com reports on Twitter. Vasquez, 29, hasn’t seen the majors since a seven-start debut back in 2011. He threw 134 innings last year in the Philadelphia organization, including twenty starts for Triple-A Lehigh Valley, and ended the year with a 4.10 ERA with 5.1 K/9 against 3.4 BB/9.
  • Outfielder/first baseman Matt McBride has joined the Athletics on a minor league deal, Matt Eddy of Baseball America notes in his rundown of recent minor moves. McBride has 158 big league plate appearances on his ledger, though he hasn’t done much in his limited opportunities. The right-handed hitter did put up a healthy (albeit park-inflated) .328/.380/.549 slash last year in 337 Triple-A plate appearances.

    What a shame, really wanted a lefty to contend for the Brewers, who are running a solid righty staff unless Hader makes it

    McBride is such a classic A’s acquisition. Tears the cover off the ball in AAA, can play everywhere. But can’t make it work at the major league level, even at Coors Field. Watch him turn into a useful player.

    Poor Hags. TJ before he even got his minor league started good, then broken arm and now?

    Lost some velocity after the TJ. Was a 95-7mph starter very early. Was only one felt bad about losing initially in V-Mart deal, even over Masterson, then Hags seemed to lose it with the Indians. His bright light as a prospect dimmed.

    Maybe someone can get him and fix control issues, something he didn’t have prior to Cleveland. 92-94 is still good with his arm angle, numbers show it.vs lefties.
