Minor MLB Transactions: 5/11/16

By Steve Adams | May 11, 2016 at 6:49pm CDT

Here are the day’s minor moves from around the game…

  • Former Brewers outfielder Logan Schafer has signed with the Lancaster Barnstormers of the Atlantic League, the team announced (as Jason Bristol of CBS 21 first reported, on Twitter, yesterday). The 29-year-old Schafer appeared in 268 games with Milwaukee over the past three seasons, hitting .207/.284/.310 in 616 plate appearances during that time. The former third-rounder is capable of playing all three outfield spots and has a career .281/.338/.431 batting line in parts of four seasons at the Triple-A level. Presumably, he’ll look to follow the path that so many former big leaguers have taken: using the independent circuit (the Atlantic League, in particular) as a springboard back into affiliated ball.
  • Another former Brewer, first baseman Matt Clark (a former teammate of Schafer), has agreed to a deal with the Orix Buffaloes of Japan’s Nippon Professional Baseball, MLBTR has learned. Clark, 29, saw a brief taste of the Majors in 2014 when he went 5-for-27 with three home runs in 31 plate appearances. That cup of coffee represents his only big league experience to date, but Clark has outstanding numbers in Triple-A, where he’s slashed .294/.366/.511 in 1806 plate appearances. This won’t be his first crack at Japanese ball, either, as Clark spent the 2013 campaign with the Chunichi Dragons, where he batted .238/.328/.457 with 25 home runs in 132 games.
