A very uneventful offseason, but there are a handful of players now with other teams.

We lost four players in the expansion draft. We are going to have to move our AAA team so it doesn't get confusing.

Edit: We have moved our AAA team from Las Vegas to San Jose and renamed them as the "Missions" (1977 Oakland AAA affiliate).

Corbin Martin came over from Arizona with Eduardo Escobar and was selected by Las Vegas.

Jonah Heim is a switch hitting catcher that we had on our 40 man. We could have traded Austin Allen and maybe protected him, but he is now in Montreal.

Grant Holmes hurt his elbow last season and was unprotected. He is still out for 2 more months, but he is in Las Vegas.

Garrett Whitley was acquired from Tampa Bay last year. He "was" 3 star potential, but very low contact. He is already 25 and has barely touched AAA. He is now with Las Vegas (in AA).

Some of our 2021 players who have signed elsewhere:

Ji-Man Choi signed a 1 year deal with KC
Eduardo Escobar signed a 1 year deal with STL
Ender Inciarte signed a 2 year deal with Boston
Seth Lugo signed a 1 year deal with Houston ($13.1 million!)
Collin McHugh signed a 4 year deal with Detroit ($39.6 million, 4th year is vesting option)
Shun Yamaguchi signed a 1 year deal with SF ($11.2 million!)

Here is a look at the pitchers to start 2022!
Brady Feigl won the 5th starter spot over T.J. Zeuch.

Here is a look at the batters to start 2022!
I would like to find another SS to let Nick Allen start the season in AAA.

Here is who is on the IL to start the season.
Nick Gordon going down in spring training was a tough pill to swallow.

Here is the AL preseason predictions for the standings!
85-77 would put us in a tie for a wildcard spot.
Let's see if we can do better than the prediction!
