Minor MLB Transactions: 2/13/18

By Steve Adams | February 13, 2018 at 8:43pm CDT

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

  • The Nationals announced a slate of 17 players they’ve signed to minor league deals with invites to Spring Training, including a deal with former Padres righty Cesar Vargas. (Some of the remaining names — Edwin Jackson, Tommy Milone, Ryan Raburn, Miguel Montero — were veterans with notable big league experience, though each of those deals had been previously reported.) Vargas, 26, tossed 34 innings for the 2016 Friars, logging a 5.03 ERA with a 28-to-15 K/BB ratio in seven starts as a Major Leaguer. After working as a starter in ’16, though, Vargas pitched almost exclusively out of the bullpen between the Padres’ Double-A and Triple-A affiliates this past season. He struggled to a 5.50 ERA and averaged five walks per nine innings, though he also averaged 10.2 K/9 in that time. He could serve as depth either in the ’pen or the rotation with his new organization.

      You’re making wrestling fans look as dumb as people assume they are when you post stuff like this on a baseball blog. Good job.

    Edwin Jackson by all accounts is a terrific guy. That said, he puts Zombies to shame, cause he cannot be killed.

    Or to put it another way he embarrassed Christ, cause the savior was only resurrected once.

    Edwin Jackson? Miguel Montero? Might as well sign Ian Stewart, and somehow acquire Justin Wilson and Jason Heyward.
