Minor MLB Transactions: 1/14/17

By charliewilmoth | January 14, 2017 at 10:59am CDT

Here are today’s minor moves from around the league.

  • The Mariners have announced that they’ve outrighted righty Cody Martin to Triple-A Tacoma. They had designated him for assignment when they acquired Mallex Smith and Shae Simmons from the Braves last week. The 27-year-old Martin made nine appearances, including two starts, for the Mariners last year and posted a 3.86 ERA, but with a modest 5.3 K/9 and 3.2 BB/9. He fared well in 114 1/3 innings with Tacoma, with a 3.62 ERA, 9.0 K/9 and 2.6 BB/9, and has generally been successful at the Triple-A level in his career.
  • The Indians have announced that they’ve signed righties Steve Delabar and Travis Banwart to minor-league deals with Spring Training invites. As a hard-throwing member of the Blue Jays bullpen, the 33-year-old Delabar was once one of the game’s more dynamic setup men, but he’s fallen on hard times of late. He struggled in eight innings with the Reds last season and finished his season with the Hiroshima Carp in Japan. The 30-year-old Banwart also pitched in Asia last year, posting a 5.79 ERA, 6.0 K/9 and 3.2 BB/9 in 130 2/3 innings with the KT Wiz in Korea. It was his third year in the KBO. Before that, he pitched parts of eight seasons in the Athletics and Indians farm systems, ascending as high as the Triple-A level. He could end up pitching with the Indians’ Triple-A affiliate in Columbus, for which he posted a 3.13 ERA, 7.9 K/9 and 3.3 BB/9 in 16 starts in 2014 before departing for Korea.

    Hope Cody Martin will get a shot sometime. He was leaving practice at Spring Training last year and as all the other players walked by he stoped and played catch with me and my friend for a few minuets.

    Great pickup by Cleveland.

    Delebar was an all-star in 2013, and throws almost mid 90s.. He turned his career around by adopting the “weighted ball” program a couple years ago.. Hes a huge fan of it. He was a a part-time teacher during the off season. Great bounce back candidate.

      Meh, that was 4 years ago, he’s 33 and has been pretty bad the last 3 years. He didn’t even do well at AAA last year, doesn’t bode well for him returning to a major league bullpen.

    Low risk move, especially with relievers you never know but you might snag a gem cheap.

    Delabar was a flash in the pan. He probably should have just stayed in Japan.
