Outrighted: Quackenbush, Adams, Brothers, Ravin

By Jeff Todd | April 25, 2018 at 7:41pm CDT

Here are the latest players to be outrighted off of their teams’ 40-man rosters:

  • The Reds announced that righty Kevin Quackenbush has been outrighted after clearing waivers following a recent DFA. The veteran could have elected free agency but has instead decided to remain in the Cincinnati organization, MLBTR’s Steve Adams tweets. Quackenbush did not produce a very appealing stat line during his ten appearances with the Reds. He surrendered 11 earned runs, with a 7:6 K/BB ratio, in just nine innings of action. In over two hundred career innings at the game’s highest level, Quackenbush carries a 4.38 ERA.
  • Outfielder Lane Adams and relievers Rex Brothers and Josh Ravin were all outrighted by the Braves, the club says. Both Adams and Ravin had recently been designated for assignment, so had already been removed from the 40-man. As for Brothers, a 30-year-old southpaw, he’ll lose his spot after a rough start to the season. He has issued eight walks in his six Triple-A frames — an area that has long been a challenge — and does not appear to be in the team’s immediate plans. The Braves will pay Brothers at a lesser rate in the minors under the split contract he agreed to last fall. Adams, who has been productive in limited action at the MLB level over the past two years, will remain on hand as an outfield depth piece. Ravin, who was claimed over the winter, will likely be among the first pitchers considered if a bullpen need arises.

    Wait, what. Lane Adams seems like a guy someone should have taken a shot on

    Yeah the Braves got lucky if he did clear waivers. I know it says he’ll serve as depth in minors but I don’t see where it says he cleared nor wasn’t claimed….he’s a good bench piece

      Bowman posted that he cleared, and he’s with Gwinnett.

      Any player that is outrighted has already cleared waivers. You can’t be sent outright to a minor league affiliate unless you clear.
