Minor MLB Transactions: 1/20/2021

By Jeff Todd | January 21, 2021 at 12:15am CDT

Let’s check in on the latest minor moves from around the game …

  • The Red Sox have a deal of the minor-league variety with right-hander Zac Grotz, per Chris Cotillo of MassLive.com (via Twitter). Grotz receives an invitation to MLB Spring Training in the agreement. He’ll be looking to reach the majors for the third-straight year after reaching the professional ranks as a 28th-round pick. The former Mariner has surrendered twenty earned runs with a 22:19 K/BB ratio through 24 2/3 MLB innings.
  • The Winnipeg Goldeyes of the indy ball American Association have announced the addition of a pair of former big league hurlers. 31-year-old Ryan Dull will seek to earn his way back into the affiliated ranks after a series of tough campaigns. He excelled for the Athletics in 2016 but has struggled with injuries and performance lapses since. Also coming aboard is righty Josh Lucas, who has thrown 37 1/3 innings of 5.54 ERA ball at the game’s highest level (including a brief stint alongside Dull with the Athletics in 2018). Additionally, former Phillies farmhand Kyle Martin will be back to reprise his role as a top slugger for the Goldeyes.

        To put this in sports perspective, it’s “whoop-de-damn-do’.

    I am all for reading about any and all signings. Those who feel reading about minor MLB transactions is beneath them can just skip the articles entitled minor MLB transactions.

    Kyle Martin is a pitcher who has never before played for the Goldeyes, so I’m thinking there is some confusion here.

        How do you like his moves? Has he done anything to improve the team. I guess Kennedy’s statement about last year being an embarrassment was all bs. So far we have spent 5 million to improve the pitching by adding potential CY Young Award Winner Martin Perez. Tell me I’m wrong here
