AUTiger7222 Posted November 19, 2020 Author Share Posted November 19, 2020 The Angels signed former Braves minor leaguer Ray-Patrick Didder. Didder became a MiLB free agent after the 2019 season and signed with the Padres but was then cut loose by them when several minor leaguers were loose by teams after the MiLB season was cancelled.

I suspect a few former Braves may find their way to Anaheim. AUTiger7222 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just depends on what the Cubs are looking for. If they want bats or MLB ready it might be a tough match. Just have to see what they're thinking now that Jed Hoyer has taken over.

Mike Zunino is a free agent and won't return and their other catcher from 2020 (Michael Perez) was claimed on waivers by the Pirates. Neither one hit a lick for the Rays so they let both go. They need a massive upgrade at catcher. Braves have catching depth they can spare. Plus, as you said we've got arms we can send them and they've proven to be able to develop pitching.

With so much in flux, nobody expected them to pick it back up in 2020. Apparently, Cano and some other players thought they could cheat without repercussions. MLB became aware of it and quietly started testing again late in the summer. Cano and anybody else who gets busted were trying to take advantage of the pandemic.

Incredibly sad. One of the kindest fans I ever had the pleasure to talk to regularly. Bumped into him at a random Danville @ Greeneville Appy League game in 2017. Very knowledgeable and passionate about the game. I learned more about evaluating sliders talking with him for 15 minutes than I did in my previous lifetime. Absolutely heartbreaking. jidady 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
