Miscellaneous Farmhand Spring Training Camp Notes

[Mass Haas]

TWEET - 2016 6th round catcher Payton Henry, 19 years old (20 in June), assigned to extended Maryvale spring training coming off a nice spring, and one would think has a nice chance to be on the Helena roster in June.

I'm really interested in who will make Wisconsin out of camp. Think Feliciano, McClanahan, Orimoloye, and Mallen all have an outside chance. Mario has had stellar camp but with him being a catcher, not sure they will push him that fast. McClanahan has hit well. I'd like to see Demi make but may have to wait until Harrison moves up.

Just looking at the lineups from the last week or so and listening to the stuff Mehring is putting together, I'd guess the answers are going to be yes, no, maybe and no. Each team seems like they have 14 position players in the mix right now, with one catcher likely to come down with third-catcher-itis and then one decision to make. For Wisconsin, it seems like Aguilar, Rodriguez, Gideon, Neuhaus, Lara, Cuas, Morrison, Harrison, Segovia and Aguilar as near locks and Oquendo as somewhat likely. I think the last spot is dependent on where they want Orimoloye. If they want him at Wisconsin it is his, if not it is Whalen's.

Looks like catcher Rene Garcia will be relatively unscathed after Saturday's scary Miller Park home plate collision.
