The latest minor moves from around baseball…
- Right-hander Brandon Mann has signed with the Chiba Lotte Marines of Nippon Professional Baseball (h/t to Kyle Boddy of Driveline Baseball). The 34-year-old Mann, whom the Rangers outrighted in November, was a 27th-round pick of the then-Devil Rays in 2002 who finally debuted in the majors last season. He struggled to a 5.40 ERA with 3.2 K/9 and 4.3 BB/9 over 8 1/3 innings, however, and will now return to Japan, where he pitched with Yokohama from 2011-12.
- In a move that flew under MLBTR’s radar, infielder Sean Miller signed a minor league contract with the Orioles in December, per Roch Kubatko of MASNsports.com. Miler, a 24-year-old Maryland native, had been with the Twins since they picked him in the 10th round of the 2015 draft. While with the Twins, Miller managed a mere .599 OPS over 1,287 minor league plate appearances, including 34 at the Triple-A level last season.

Nobody cares when he was drafted.
My bad, dude. He was one of the Yankees’ biggest busts.
Thought his draft pedigree showed you his potential. Also, still just 25 years of age.
I wish him nothing but success, even though injuries.
Give it up dude, he sucks. Too many sliders and torque on the elbow. Undersized. Wild. Idk why anyone liked him
I care. Shows his pedigree…..
Senzel would be perfect for the Padres. Reds already have Suarez and need pitching prospects. These team match up well actually
The Reds are not trading Senzel for prospects.
They’d want a major league arm.
Is there a MiLB free agent tracker?
