Grab Bag - List of 2016 Minor League Free Agents

The guy that immediately jumps out to me is Jio Mier, former Astros 1st round pick and SS/3B/2B. Have to wonder if the Stearns connection will reap a benefit here.

 

Alex Liddi (KC) was a pretty well regarded prospect not too long ago as well, though if I recall he wasn't good defensively at third.

Guys I would be happy to see brought in on a minor league deal:

 

PITCHERS

* Carlos Pimentel - still only 25- put up great numbers at AAA

* Jhan Martinez- will be 27 and dominated AAA

* Alex Torres - was always an underrated prospect- has consistently performed well and still just 27

* Kyle Drabek - one time prospect, still 27 a backend starter in the MLB- not sure we need anymore of that type of depth though

* Neftali Feliz (listed as minor league free agent on MLB.com)- terrible year last year- but still 27 and one year removed from being considered a dominant relief pitcher

* Donn Roach- (listed as minor league free agent on MLB.com) - is just 25. low K rate, but also consistently low ERAs.

* Hector Noesi (listed as minor league free agent on mlb.com) - battled injuries the last few years, has been waiting for shot to put it all together

 

POSTION PLAYERS

* Franklin Gutierrez-OF - can play all OF positions and possible competition for a stopgap in CF

* Danny Dorn-1B/OF - late bloomer, best hitter in AAA last season

* Matt McBride-C/OF- big bat, but classic AAAA player

* Domonic Brown-OF - still a lot of talent- probably will not realize it if hasn't but now, but worth bringing in for spring training

* Hak-Ju Lee-UI - still young, was a good prospect, could be a good utility infielder

* Grant Green- U - can play all over the field, still a lot of potential unrealized

* Luis Jimenez- UI- another go round?

* Connor Gillaspie- 3B- possible AAA depth

 

BREWERS- Still hope we bring back (in order of preference):

Johnny Hellweg

Jarret Martin

Juan Centeno

Preston Guilmet

Matt Clark

Manny Barreda

Cesar Jimenez
