Padres Claim Logan Gillaspie

By Steve Adams | November 15, 2023 at 12:56pm CDT

The Padres have claimed right-hander Logan Gillaspie off waivers from the Red Sox, per a team announcement out of Boston. The Padres have several open spots on their 40-man roster, so a corresponding move isn’t necessary. Boston’s 40-man roster count is now down to 38 players.

Gillaspie, 26, spent only a couple months in the Boston organization. The Sox picked him up from the division-rival Orioles via an early September waiver claim. He pitched 4 1/3 innings with Boston’s Triple-A affiliate but will now join his third organization of the year.

Baltimore signed Gillaspie as a minor league free agent prior to the 2021 season, and he was with the O’s from the time of that contract until Boston’s waiver claim. He’s missed plenty of bats in the upper minors, fanning just over a quarter of his opponents between Double-A and Triple-A. In 26 1/3 MLB innings, Gillaspie has a 4.10 ERA with a much lighter 15% strikeout rate. He’s limited free passes nicely (6.7% walk rate) and averaged better than 95 mph on his heater. He’ll give the Padres some depth in the bullpen, and he still has a minor league option remaining, which gives them some additional flexibility with their relief corps next year — if Gillaspie lasts that long on the 40-man roster, of course.

      Quad A player if ever there was one.

      Look at his transaction page:

      If the back end of the Padres 40-man roster is so weak it can claim a player like this, before the Rule V draft, well then, Good Luck!

    I like this, but I really like the Jeremiah Estrada signing too! I think he is going to play a big part in the teams plans next year.

    Get used to this. With the change in leadership, the small transactions will be returning. Gotta get those finances back in line. No more loans to meet payroll.

      Like every year that Preller picks up a guy off waivers and turns them into a bullpen regular?

    Based on film, he has a pretty nasty slider

    I almost had a cardiac arrest as I read the headline too fast and thought I saw “Logan Gilbert” instead.

        Gwynning some things are just not meant to be joked about man. I mean we’re talking about some serious pitching here. These are life & death matters for our teams man.

    I didn’t realize Boston had claimed him in the first place. Boston needs to add 3-4 players to their MLB roster this year so they need to find a way to get that number down to 35 or 36. Save a spot or two for a Rule V draft pick and use the rest for trades and/or free agent signings.
