Minor MLB Transactions: 1/17/17

By Jeff Todd | January 17, 2017 at 8:30am CDT

We’ll track the day’s minor moves in this post:

  • The Mariners have added righty Josh Judy on a minors deal, per Robert Murray of Fan Rag (via Twitter). Soon to turn 31, Judy will return to a MLB organization after two years playing elsewhere — first, in the indy ranks and then in the Mexican League. Judy climbed the ladder quickly as a 34th-round pick, posting intriguing strikeout tallies and briefly reaching the majors back in 2011 with the Indians. But he struggled there and never regained his footing. Last year, though, he provided Mexico’s Tigres de Quintana Roo with 52 2/3 innings of 1.20 ERA ball, allowing only 35 hits and a single home run while posting 7.9 K/9 against just 1.4 BB/9.

    Probably competition for the 6th inning reliever. Along with Heston, Zych, Simmons, Fien

    Anyone else read the article too quick and wonder why the hell would the Mariners sign Judge Judy?

        Cut it out guys. Don’t make jokes like that.
        Especially because Judge Mathis already signed with the DBacks.

    Just an update for this one (mlbtraderumors.com/2017/01/indians-release-edwin-e…), Edwin Escobar signed with the Hokkaido Nippon-Ham Fighters on a one-year deal that’s worth an estimated 90 million Yen (780,000 USD in annual salary) back in January 11th.
