Minor MLB Transactions: Marlins, D-backs, Padres

By Connor Byrne | June 4, 2019 at 1:59am CDT

A couple of the latest minor moves from around baseball, courtesy of Roster Roundup:

  • The Marlins have acquired catcher Tyler Heineman from the Diamondbacks. The D-backs presumably received cash in the deal for Heineman, who took 90 plate appearances with their Triple-A club in Reno and hit .325/.407/.525 (134 wRC+). Now 27, the amateur magician was a decent Astros prospect in his younger days. Heineman entered the pros as Houston’s eighth-round pick in 2012.
  • The Padres have released outfielder Jacob Scavuzzo, who posted quality power numbers with their Triple-A team in El Paso this year. While the 25-year-old slashed .259/.300/.696 (127 wRC+) with 15 home runs and a .438 ISO in the offense-driven Pacific Coast League, he went down on strikes 40 times against just five walks. Scavuzzo was with the Dodgers through last season after joining them as a 21st-rounder in 2012. FanGraphs’ Eric Longenhagen pointed out Scavuzzo’s lack of plate discipline a little over a year ago while assessing the Dodgers’ prospects, but he did credit the right-handed hitter’s “big pop.”

    The Padres released a guy that is slugging nearly .700 in AAA without ever seeing what he can do in the bigs? I get that the PCL is an offense heavy league, but .700 is .700. At the very least he could have been some power on the bench.

        When you have 3 teams slugging over .500 and 10 of 16 teams above .800 OPS there is some validity to it.

      40K/5BB in AAA at 25 makes him a non prospect
