Monday’s minor moves from around baseball:
- The Rays have outrighted right-hander Kevin Gadea to Triple-A Durham, according to Marc Topkin of the Tampa Bay Times. Gadea joined the Rays last December as a Rule 5 pick from the Mariners, but elbow problems prevented him from throwing a pitch with his new organization in 2017. Tampa Bay offered Gadea back to Seattle after removing the 22-year-old from the 60-day disabled list and before outrighting him, but the Mariners declined, Topkin reports. Therefore, unless someone takes Gadea in this year’s Rule 5 draft, he’ll stay with the Rays.
- The Marlins have re-signed infielder Peter Mooney to a minor league deal with an invitation to spring training, according to agent Marc Kligman (h/t: Tim Healey of the South Florida Sun Sentinel, on Twitter). In 2017, his second season with the Marlins organization, the 27-year-old Mooney hit .213/.290/.308 across 455 plate appearances with Triple-A New Orleans.
why would anybody resign wiyh Markins?????????????
I wonder that all the time
Yeah. The Makrins suck! Now the MARLINS….
Also suck xD
I mean if you’re hitting .213 in AAA, and the Markins are going to give you an invite to spring training… why not?
When you have a career .650 OPS over 6 years in the minors, you sign with anybody willing to hire you.
