Minor MLB Transactions: 1/25/19

By Steve Adams | January 25, 2019 at 10:40am CDT

Here are the day’s minor moves from around the league…

  • The Athletics announced a wide slate of non-roster invitations to Spring Training, revealing within that they’ve signed left-hander Kyle Crockett, infielders Corban Joseph and Eric Campbell, and righty Brian Schlitter to minor league contracts. Crockett, 27, has the most significant big league experience among the new additions, having logged 9 1/3 innings with the Reds last year and 74 2/3 innings over the past five seasons. Crockett was a 2013 fourth-rounder who skyrocketed through the minors and impressed in a 2014 MLB debut (1.80 ERA, 8.4 K/9, 2.4 BB/9 in 30 innings). He’s managed just a 5.04 ERA in 44 2/3 frames since, though his 45-to-17 K/BB ratio in that time is solid. Joseph, 30, posted a .541 OPS in 19 plate appearances with the O’s last season and hit .312/.381/.497 in 523 Double-A PAs last year. Campbell, 31, had a three-year run as an up-and-down utility piece for the Mets from 2014-16 and hasn’t been in the Majors since. He’s a career .221/.312/.311 hitter and enjoyed a .313/.420/.445 slash in 402 Triple-A PAs with Miami last year. Schlitter, 33, hasn’t been in the Majors since 2015. He has an ugly 5.40 ERA in 71 2/3 innings with the Cubs but worked to a solid 3.36 ERA in 67 innings with the Dodgers’ top affiliate last season.

    Only Crockett has a real chance of making the team. A’s do need 1 more lefty reliever.

    Schlitter is a name I haven’t heard in a long time as a Cubs fan. Good memories of the rebuilding years. lol

    Well when your name sounds like a combination of the Sh word and Kitty litter, it’s doing to be an uphill battle no matter what you do in life. Schlitter

    The A’s also signed Kyle Lobstein and Dean Kiekhefer. Eric Campbell is good veteran minor leaguer. He has a great slash line throughout his minor league career.

    Or is Crockett and Joseph incorrect? Because MLB.com shows Lobstein and Kiekhefer but not the guys mentioned first.
