Opening day is here! But first, we should take a moment to review the relevant takeaways from spring training. This spring has had its share of concerning injuries and position battles but also several opening day roster success stories which will be covered in this article. Then there will be a dive through notable players who contributed to their teams this spring but did not make the opening day roster. Finally, a summary of the top players and a productivity chart showing where all teams finished in offensive stat categories for spring training 2025 will be included.
Relevant Stats for This Series
Although the sample sizes are still relatively small, and the parks in spring training tend to favor hitting, there is still merit to using stats like wOBA and wRC+ to evaluate hitters during this period. In case you are unfamiliar with these terms, they are defined as follows:
wOBA (Weighted On Base Average): Combines all the different aspects of hitting into one metric, weighting each of them in proportion to their actual run value. While batting average, on-base percentage, and slugging percentage fall short in accuracy and scope, wOBA measures and captures offensive value more accurately and comprehensively.
wRC+ (Weighted Runs Created Plus): The most comprehensive rate statistic used to measure hitting performance because it takes into account the varying weights of each offensive action (like wOBA) and then adjusts them for the park and league context in which they took place. A wRC+ score of 100 is considered performing at the league average.
There are two more basic ratios — average (Hits per AB) and slugging percentage (Bases per AB) — which can provide a raw evaluation of how much players are taking advantage of their limited opportunities and can be calculated easily even with limited stats available during this period. Full in-season Statcast data does a far better job of building hitter profiles, but given that Statcast data is not available for all parks and games in spring training, these are adequate stand-ins for evaluating players taking advantage of the at-bats they have been given.
Data contained in this article is from spring training games played 2/20-3/25.
The Graduates
These players are prospects or previously minor league players who made the opening day roster for their prospective teams.
Cam Smith (3B/OF), HOU
G | AB | PA | H | 1B | 2B | 3B | HR | R | RBI | BB | SO | SB | TB | AVG | SLG | wOBA | wRC+ |
15 | 38 | 43 | 13 | 8 | 0 | 1 | 4 | 8 | 11 | 5 | 11 | 0 | 27 | 0.342 | 0.711 | 0.474 | 186 |
As this series has helped launch the Cam Smith fan club, the announcement on Tuesday in front of him and his family that he made the team was a feel-good moment. His transition to RF appears to be good enough, as he will be starting there on Thursday. His road to the bigs has been noteworthy — he skipped Triple-A entirely and has only 33 minor league games of experience, which ranks as the 3rd fewest prior to a major league call up. Veterans on the team were pulling for him and he’s done everything that was asked of him this spring, so his efforts have been rewarded.
Alan Roden (OF), TOR
G | AB | PA | H | 1B | 2B | 3B | HR | R | RBI | BB | SO | SB | TB | AVG | SLG | wOBA | wRC+ |
20 | 27 | 37 | 11 | 7 | 2 | 0 | 2 | 8 | 6 | 6 | 4 | 0 | 19 | 0.407 | 0.704 | 0.527 | 220 |
This one was a bit of a surprise, given his small number of plate appearances related to his games played this spring, but he’s been ultra-efficient with his opportunities. Daulton Varsho will be starting the season on IL, so having him around for added depth might have entered into the decision. It’s not entirely clear how that will translate to at-bats as the season starts, making this a situation worth monitoring — especially once Varsho returns to action — but the organization appears to be more heavily invested in lefty bats this year which may result in more platoon hitting than they have done in recent years.
Kristian Campbell (2B), BOS
G | AB | PA | H | 1B | 2B | 3B | HR | R | RBI | BB | SO | SB | TB | AVG | SLG | wOBA | wRC+ |
20 | 48 | 59 | 8 | 5 | 2 | 0 | 1 | 8 | 2 | 10 | 18 | 0 | 13 | 0.167 | 0.271 | 0.277 | 60 |
Second base has been highly speculative for most of the spring on the Red Sox — there was some early drama over whether one of Rafael Devers or Alex Bregman was going to shift from third to second, but it didn’t seem like the organization really wanted to force that issue. They’ve been very committed to giving him playing time this spring, and he has become more patient at the plate over time after having a high strikeout rate over the first 10 days. He’s also seen at-bats all up and down the lineup — it’s unlikely he sees the top half of the lineup, but if he settles into the middle of the lineup, there will be good chances for RBIs (he hit a home run in the spring closer on Tuesday in the six spot) and steadier offensive production. Overall, he’s a good investment in dynasty leagues even if this first season is full of some growing pains.
Drake Baldwin (C), ATL
G | AB | PA | H | 1B | 2B | 3B | HR | R | RBI | BB | SO | SB | TB | AVG | SLG | wOBA | wRC+ |
17 | 42 | 50 | 12 | 10 | 2 | 0 | 0 | 4 | 4 | 8 | 4 | 0 | 14 | 0.286 | 0.333 | 0.349 | 106 |
It probably wasn’t in the Braves’ original plan to have Drake Baldwin play a pivotal role in their 2025 season, but Sean Murphy cracked a rib almost a month ago and they decided to invest in Baldwin’s future. Chadwick Tromp, the normal backup option, is out of minor league options so Atlanta will have a decision to make in about a month when Murphy returns — Baldwin’s performance could decide whether he supplants Tromp as the backup or returns to Triple-A. Drake Baldwin’s main strength is his plate discipline — he maintained a K-rate of < 19% across 550 plate appearances in Double-A/Triple-A last season.
Max Muncy (2B/SS), ATH
G | AB | PA | H | 1B | 2B | 3B | HR | R | RBI | BB | SO | SB | TB | AVG | SLG | wOBA | wRC+ |
24 | 39 | 47 | 11 | 9 | 1 | 0 | 1 | 7 | 7 | 6 | 11 | 1 | 15 | 0.282 | 0.385 | 0.352 | 108 |
The lesser-known Max Muncy gets his big break with Zack Gelof undergoing surgery on his right hand. As with Baldwin, his long-term outlook is probably dependent on his performance. His primary experience is at shortstop, but the Athletics also have high hopes for Jacob Wilson, making second base Muncy’s best chance at sticking around.
The Prospects
These are all noteworthy players returning the minors for at least the start of 2025 but may be worth watching for in-season alerts in case they have a chance to be called up.
Jordan Lawlar (SS), ARI
G | AB | PA | H | 1B | 2B | 3B | HR | R | RBI | BB | SO | SB | TB | AVG | SLG | wOBA | wRC+ |
13 | 34 | 38 | 10 | 5 | 3 | 1 | 1 | 6 | 4 | 4 | 8 | 2 | 18 | 0.294 | 0.529 | 0.389 | 132 |
Jordan Lawlar is still the Diamondbacks’ top prospect, and many thought he was going to be an impact player this year. Instead, they granted Geraldo Perdomo a 4-year contract extension and decided to send Lawlar back to Triple-A. Perdomo is a strong defensive player overall, and although they’ve been trying Lawlar out at 3B this spring, he may be going back to Triple-A to work on that position as a way onto the major league roster. Their GM issued a statement reassuring the public that “when he’s ready to be on this team, he’ll be on this team” even if that may take some time.
Nick Kurtz (1B), ATH
G | AB | PA | H | 1B | 2B | 3B | HR | R | RBI | BB | SO | SB | TB | AVG | SLG | wOBA | wRC+ |
14 | 23 | 31 | 6 | 4 | 0 | 0 | 2 | 4 | 5 | 7 | 5 | 0 | 12 | 0.261 | 0.522 | 0.434 | 160 |
Nick Kurtz is the Athletics’s #2 prospect, and although he has a Judge-esque frame, they like his plate discipline and consider him a strong fielder at first base. Tyler Soderstrom and Seth Brown are the current leaders for first base, but both have struggled this spring and with the team looking for a new home, they may look to go all-in on their youth and fresh talent.
Samuel Basallo (C/1B/DH), BAL
G | AB | PA | H | 1B | 2B | 3B | HR | R | RBI | BB | SO | SB | TB | AVG | SLG | wOBA | wRC+ |
16 | 31 | 36 | 7 | 4 | 0 | 1 | 2 | 5 | 8 | 2 | 11 | 0 | 15 | 0.226 | 0.484 | 0.325 | 90 |
Samuel Basallo started strong but his strikeout rate increased as spring training went on. He’s still Baltimore’s top-ranked prospect but it’s a deep roster to carve out a regular role in as a new player. First base is essentially locked as a platoon between Mountcastle/O’Hearn and Rutschman isn’t going anywhere. Basallo isn’t strong enough defensively yet to take over one of those first base roles, so DH probably is where he gets his shot if he gets called up this season. Baltimore also has shown they’re willing to take things slow (as Coby Mayo can attest) so a call up is by no means guaranteed this year.
Roman Anthony (OF), BOS
Marcelo Mayer (SS), BOS
Anthony
G | AB | PA | H | 1B | 2B | 3B | HR | R | RBI | BB | SO | SB | TB | AVG | SLG | wOBA | wRC+ |
17 | 34 | 46 | 7 | 5 | 1 | 0 | 1 | 4 | 10 | 10 | 12 | 0 | 11 | 0.206 | 0.324 | 0.344 | 103 |
Mayer
G | AB | PA | H | 1B | 2B | 3B | HR | R | RBI | BB | SO | SB | TB | AVG | SLG | wOBA | wRC+ |
20 | 36 | 44 | 12 | 9 | 0 | 2 | 1 | 6 | 11 | 8 | 11 | 0 | 19 | 0.333 | 0.528 | 0.435 | 161 |
Roman Anthony is Boston’s top prospect and Marcelo Mayer is their #3 (Campbell was #2). With Wilyer Abreu working through an illness this spring and looking likely to be alright for opening day, Anthony looks like he will start at Triple-A. Mayer will start at Triple-A as well, but given Trevor Story’s injury history, there is a very real chance he sees a major league call up at some point. This year is shaping up to be an exciting one in Boston with all this young talent ready to break out.
Gage Workman (3B/SS), CHC
G | AB | PA | H | 1B | 2B | 3B | HR | R | RBI | BB | SO | SB | TB | AVG | SLG | wOBA | wRC+ |
20 | 44 | 50 | 16 | 10 | 1 | 1 | 4 | 8 | 15 | 5 | 14 | 3 | 31 | 0.364 | 0.705 | 0.469 | 183 |
Gage Workman is technically on the roster — due to Rule 5 draft rules he has to stay on the roster or revert back to the Tigers. When Nico Hoerner returns, it likely comes down to either him or Vidal Bruján to get cut (update: Bruján went on the 10-day IL on 3/23). Workman has strong fielding skills and also has experience at second base and right field, so his versatility might give him the edge over Bruján.
Kyle Teel (C), CHW
G | AB | PA | H | 1B | 2B | 3B | HR | R | RBI | BB | SO | SB | TB | AVG | SLG | wOBA | wRC+ |
14 | 19 | 23 | 6 | 3 | 1 | 0 | 2 | 5 | 6 | 4 | 4 | 0 | 13 | 0.316 | 0.684 | 0.471 | 184 |
Kyle Teel is the #2 prospect for the White Sox and he’ll start the season in Triple-A. Given expectations aren’t high for the White Sox again this year, if Teel can generate some excitement for the franchise, he will get called up at some point.
Zac Veen (OF), COL
Adael Amador (2B), COL
Veen
G | AB | PA | H | 1B | 2B | 3B | HR | R | RBI | BB | SO | SB | TB | AVG | SLG | wOBA | wRC+ |
28 | 63 | 71 | 17 | 10 | 4 | 1 | 2 | 13 | 11 | 7 | 21 | 9 | 29 | 0.270 | 0.460 | 0.359 | 113 |
Amador
G | AB | PA | H | 1B | 2B | 3B | HR | R | RBI | BB | SO | SB | TB | AVG | SLG | wOBA | wRC+ |
17 | 30 | 40 | 9 | 7 | 2 | 0 | 0 | 5 | 10 | 9 | 5 | 0 | 11 | 0.300 | 0.367 | 0.406 | 142 |
Understanding the Rockies’ personnel decisions is almost impossible. Zac Veen was one of the most highly used players this spring used extensively in both LF/RF and was praised for being the top performer in camp. An injury to Thairo Estrada forced a trade for infielder help, sending OF Nolan Jones back to Cleveland for Tyler Freeman which seemed to align perfectly for the promotion of Veen. Instead, the Rockies promoted Nick Martini who has largely been utilized as a platoon bat on the Reds. Perhaps the Rockies would like to see reduced strikeout rates from Veen who was sent to Triple-A to work on that part of his game, but it was a puzzling series of actions for a player that seemed to be trending in a positive direction. Likewise, if infielder help was needed, Adael Amador has some major league experience from last season and could have stayed with the team — perhaps his defensive skills aren’t polished enough yet.
Jac Caglianone (1B/DH), KC
G | AB | PA | H | 1B | 2B | 3B | HR | R | RBI | BB | SO | SB | TB | AVG | SLG | wOBA | wRC+ |
14 | 18 | 23 | 9 | 3 | 3 | 0 | 3 | 5 | 7 | 5 | 4 | 0 | 21 | 0.500 | 1.167 | 0.698 | 330 |
Jac Caglianone received a lot of praise in week 3’s article and ended with the 2nd best performance in spring training of all hitters with over 10 at-bats. He’s starting in Double-A but if he continues to rake, he should see a promotion to Triple-A quickly and could see a call up if the Royals have injury concerns at some point this season.
Agustín Ramírez (C/1B/DH), MIA
G | AB | PA | H | 1B | 2B | 3B | HR | R | RBI | BB | SO | SB | TB | AVG | SLG | wOBA | wRC+ |
9 | 17 | 21 | 4 | 1 | 1 | 0 | 2 | 5 | 3 | 4 | 2 | 1 | 11 | 0.235 | 0.647 | 0.430 | 158 |
Agustín Ramírez is one of the main prospects who came over as part of the Jazz Chisholm Jr. trade and is currently ranked as the #4 prospect for the Marlins. He’s still considered rough both offensively and defensively, but as expectations are low for the Marlins this year, they may decide to shake up the roster this season to try and generate some excitement.
Andruw Monasterio (2B/3B), MIL
Caleb Durbin (2B/3B/SS), MIL
Monasterio
G | AB | PA | H | 1B | 2B | 3B | HR | R | RBI | BB | SO | SB | TB | AVG | SLG | wOBA | wRC+ |
17 | 34 | 41 | 13 | 8 | 2 | 2 | 1 | 10 | 5 | 6 | 6 | 4 | 22 | 0.382 | 0.647 | 0.489 | 196 |
Durbin
G | AB | PA | H | 1B | 2B | 3B | HR | R | RBI | BB | SO | SB | TB | AVG | SLG | wOBA | wRC+ |
18 | 54 | 62 | 14 | 10 | 2 | 0 | 2 | 13 | 7 | 5 | 9 | 10 | 22 | 0.259 | 0.407 | 0.334 | 96 |
The utility infielder position battle has been going on through the spring, and it does look like Vinny Capra secured the spot while these two were both optioned to Triple-A. It’s possible both could make an appearance sometime for the Brewers in 2025 — Caleb Durbin for his stolen base prowess, and Andruw Monasterio as a stable depth option.
Alexander Vargas (SS), NYY
Spencer Jones (OF), NYY
Vargas
G | AB | PA | H | 1B | 2B | 3B | HR | R | RBI | BB | SO | SB | TB | AVG | SLG | wOBA | wRC+ |
13 | 14 | 15 | 8 | 3 | 2 | 0 | 3 | 4 | 7 | 1 | 3 | 0 | 19 | 0.571 | 1.357 | 0.792 | 390 |
Jones
G | AB | PA | H | 1B | 2B | 3B | HR | R | RBI | BB | SO | SB | TB | AVG | SLG | wOBA | wRC+ |
17 | 32 | 36 | 8 | 3 | 2 | 0 | 3 | 5 | 7 | 4 | 16 | 2 | 19 | 0.250 | 0.594 | 0.391 | 133 |
These two players couldn’t be farther apart in stature or the Yankees’ plans, yet they both find themselves in Double-A to start this season. Alexander Vargas had the best wOBA/wRC+ numbers of all hitters appearing in more than 12 games this spring, and even though he typically came in as a pinch hitter late in games, he often produced clutch hits and made his at-bats count. He’s a Cuban unranked prospect who’s been buried in the Yankees farm system for 5 years and that’s not likely to change but maybe this performance gets him a chance with another club via a trade. Spencer Jones, on the other hand, is an Aaron Judge clone (who is left-handed) who is currently the Yankees’ #3 prospect. He has the height and power the Yankees love, but his swing and timing need work as his strikeout rate from the minors and this spring indicates. The off-season signing of Cody Bellinger likely increases the timetable of Jones becoming a factor anytime soon.
Gabriel Rincones Jr. (OF), PHI
G | AB | PA | H | 1B | 2B | 3B | HR | R | RBI | BB | SO | SB | TB | AVG | SLG | wOBA | wRC+ |
15 | 23 | 29 | 5 | 2 | 0 | 0 | 3 | 5 | 7 | 6 | 7 | 0 | 14 | 0.217 | 0.609 | 0.417 | 150 |
The Phillies tend to take a slow approach to the development of their prospect hitters and after signing Max Kepler this off-season, it looks like Gabriel Rincones Jr. will need to wait for his big shot. Rincones Jr is currently their #10 prospect and likely will remain at Triple-A unless injuries force their hand.
Tirso Ornelas (OF), SD
G | AB | PA | H | 1B | 2B | 3B | HR | R | RBI | BB | SO | SB | TB | AVG | SLG | wOBA | wRC+ |
23 | 51 | 57 | 15 | 9 | 5 | 0 | 1 | 5 | 3 | 6 | 6 | 0 | 23 | 0.294 | 0.451 | 0.366 | 117 |
There was a huge position battle this spring over the Padres’ LF spot — Jason Heyward and Brandon Lockridge ended up securing the spot, Gavin Sheets made a case for DH with his bat, and that leaves Tirso Ornelas and Connor Joe as the ones shipped to Triple-A. Lockridge was the big surprise of this group but his team-leading seven steals gave him the edge over the competition. Quotes from the team remained positive after optioning Ornelas to Triple-A and hinted that they hope to have him back someday:
“Tirso is a great representation of the organization,” said Shildt. “How he’s been able to continue to develop in the organization and play. To his credit, he got added to the 40-man roster. He comes into open competition. You can’t say ‘You could have done something better.’ He hit, continues to play good defense. He’s a wonderful teammate.”
“He did all the little things we’re asking, the base running … on point, on time, consistency. We told him: ‘You believe you are a Major League player. It starts there. And we believe you are a Major League player. Now go be a Major League player in Triple-A.’ That’s a hard message. But he put himself in a strong spot where we can trust him to come up because he belongs here.”
“Tirso is in a good spot in El Paso to go compete and be ready.”
Thomas Saggese (2B/SS/3B), STL
G | AB | PA | H | 1B | 2B | 3B | HR | R | RBI | BB | SO | SB | TB | AVG | SLG | wOBA | wRC+ |
13 | 30 | 33 | 8 | 6 | 1 | 0 | 1 | 5 | 2 | 3 | 9 | 0 | 12 | 0.267 | 0.400 | 0.330 | 93 |
Thomas Saggese may be the Cardinals’ #5 prospect, but he’s currently considered next in line whenever and however that happens. There are rumors that their patience may be running out for Nolan Gorman and his strikeout tendencies and they have already started shopping around Nolan Arenado to other teams.
Cardinals manager Oliver Marmol on Saggese:
“This is a kid that is a winning player…There’s good players and winning players. When this organization has been really good it’s been filled with winning players.”
Carson Williams (SS), TB
Kameron Misner (OF), TB
Jake Mangum (OF), TB
Williams
G | AB | PA | H | 1B | 2B | 3B | HR | R | RBI | BB | SO | SB | TB | AVG | SLG | wOBA | wRC+ |
12 | 32 | 35 | 9 | 6 | 2 | 1 | 0 | 1 | 1 | 3 | 9 | 2 | 13 | 0.281 | 0.406 | 0.336 | 97 |
Misner
G | AB | PA | H | 1B | 2B | 3B | HR | R | RBI | BB | SO | SB | TB | AVG | SLG | wOBA | wRC+ |
14 | 33 | 38 | 13 | 8 | 3 | 0 | 2 | 6 | 5 | 5 | 9 | 2 | 22 | 0.394 | 0.667 | 0.491 | 197 |
Mangum
G | AB | PA | H | 1B | 2B | 3B | HR | R | RBI | BB | SO | SB | TB | AVG | SLG | wOBA | wRC+ |
15 | 28 | 31 | 12 | 7 | 3 | 0 | 2 | 5 | 9 | 2 | 3 | 1 | 21 | 0.429 | 0.750 | 0.518 | 214 |
Carson Williams is the Rays top prospect and a minor league Gold Glove winner. The Rays infield is mostly settled, but shortstop will be co-handled by José Caballero and Taylor Walls until Ha-Seong Kim returns sometime in May. Neither of those options feels offensively superior to Williams, but Williams certainly feels like he would be a defensive upgrade. Maybe Cash is hesitant to introduce too many new factors right away into the lineup, but the AL East competition will be a tough test. In a last minute update before opening day, Kameron Misner has been called up to replace Richie Palacios, but probably will only be used sparingly as an extra lefty bat. This confirms that Misner is ahead of Jake Mangum in terms of call up priority, even though Mangum performed well during spring training.
Sebastian Walcott (SS), TEX
Alejandro Osuna (OF), TEX
Walcott
G | AB | PA | H | 1B | 2B | 3B | HR | R | RBI | BB | SO | SB | TB | AVG | SLG | wOBA | wRC+ |
8 | 9 | 10 | 4 | 0 | 3 | 0 | 1 | 3 | 3 | 1 | 1 | 0 | 10 | 0.444 | 1.111 | 0.647 | 297 |
Osuna
G | AB | PA | H | 1B | 2B | 3B | HR | R | RBI | BB | SO | SB | TB | AVG | SLG | wOBA | wRC+ |
24 | 35 | 44 | 15 | 8 | 5 | 1 | 1 | 3 | 7 | 7 | 7 | 2 | 25 | 0.429 | 0.714 | 0.522 | 217 |
Sebastian Walcott is the Rangers’ top prospect and is being compared to Elvis Andrus within the organization. Andrus skipped straight from Double-A up to the majors, and it’s possible that Walcott could do that same someday. The Rangers GM has a lot of praise for him already:
“Every challenge we seem to put in front of him — Major League camp is just the most recent one — he seems to handle himself extremely well. We pushed him pretty aggressively last year, and he kept checking all the boxes. For somebody who [just turned 19], it’s just incredible to see his talent and his maturity. He’s got a very bright future, and we’re excited about it.”
Also at Double-A — but not as high-profile as Walcott — is where Alejandro Osuna ended up after seeing a lot of work with the Rangers organization this spring. He’s been featured in previous articles in this series, but Bochy’s final words on him after he was part of their last round of cuts suggest he has a future with the franchise:
“He’s going to play in the major leagues…This is a really nice player.”
After bipolar finishes the last two years, the future looks bright for the Rangers with these two.
Addison Barger (OF), TOR
G | AB | PA | H | 1B | 2B | 3B | HR | R | RBI | BB | SO | SB | TB | AVG | SLG | wOBA | wRC+ |
15 | 30 | 35 | 11 | 6 | 2 | 0 | 3 | 8 | 6 | 4 | 10 | 1 | 22 | 0.367 | 0.733 | 0.480 | 190 |
Addison Barger just missed the cut for the opening day roster, but the organization still feels like he did enough — and going to Triple-A will give him guaranteed at-bats until the Blue Jays settle into their long-term plan for their outfield. The inclusion of Alan Roden and Nathan Lukes gives them depth and it sounds like they plan to be creative with rotating veterans like newly-signed Anthony Santander and George Springer into DH to keep them healthy. Another round of shuffling may happen once Varsho returns so Barger may not need to wait in the minors for long.
Nasim Nuñez (SS), WSH
G | AB | PA | H | 1B | 2B | 3B | HR | R | RBI | BB | SO | SB | TB | AVG | SLG | wOBA | wRC+ |
21 | 31 | 35 | 13 | 11 | 2 | 0 | 0 | 11 | 4 | 3 | 4 | 7 | 15 | 0.419 | 0.484 | 0.442 | 166 |
Nuñez was profiled back in week 3’s article and was considered a surprise cut when the final roster decisions were made this week. He was the top wOBA/wRC+ performer for the Nationals this spring and was the leader in stolen bases across all players until he was optioned back to Triple-A. As with the Toronto situation above, it may just be a matter of keeping him fresh with everyday action in a guaranteed role rather than being stuck on the bench or used sparingly in a pinch-running role.
Alexander Canario (OF), FA
G | AB | PA | H | 1B | 2B | 3B | HR | R | RBI | BB | SO | SB | TB | AVG | SLG | wOBA | wRC+ |
17 | 36 | 43 | 11 | 6 | 2 | 0 | 3 | 9 | 8 | 7 | 15 | 1 | 22 | 0.306 | 0.611 | 0.442 | 165 |
Alexander Canario had a solid spring for the Mets but he’s expected to be put on waivers shortly before opening day as he’s out of minor league options. He’s only 24 so he should have an easy time signing with another team soon.
Stats Wrap Up
