40 Man

Post by Cranny »

One of the things that Bloom and Cerfolio can look at closely is the 40 man roster. It needs to be shed of guys who have no real future in the organization.

Fermin should get a look but I don’t think they’re gonna move anyone at the deadline that would give him a lane for playing time.

The other 5, yea, all gone.

Fermin seems like a useful Utility player, but seems redundant with Sagasse (sp?) around

Fermin is a better baseball player today than Saggese is, though.

Maybe so, but the Cards always seem to have some guys on the 40 man that obviously shouldn’t be there. What about Koperniak? What about Siani? You could add those to the above list.

King and Fernandez have had some success at times at the ML level. Robberse has some upside once he recovers. Hampson is a total waste. Don’t need Siani with Church and Antico in the organization.

Nope, King & Fernandez are toast.

All I listed (and your list) have to be long gone, no upside.

JMO but I think C. Bloom will clean house and that means all those listed gone.

Saggese is only 23 years old. Fermin is 26.
So Saggese is better at being younger.

What else?
