Pre-Expansion Draft Moves
Before the 2025 expansion draft, where each team will be allowed to protect 35 players with at least 3 years of Pro Service, we offered a slew of offers to free agents. We don't expect to have a bunch of options in the expansion draft in terms of bats and starting pitching, so to the free market we go.
In terms of pitching, we offered 7 starting pitchers contracts, 1 of which will become a long reliever, and 1 will start in AAA. The 5 who stay in the rotation will entirely depend on who my scout likes the most. These pitchers can be seen below.
Name - Age - Stuff/Movement/Control/Stamina - Pitches - Salary
Spencer Turnbull - 32 - 45/50/45/50 - 5 - $1.3m
Noel Vela - 26 - 45/55/40/45 - 3 - League Minimum
Michael Giacone - 28 - 50/50/45/45 - 3 - League Minimum
Dovydas Neverauskas - 32 - 45/50/45/50 - 4 - $1.7m
Spencer Howard - 28 - 50/50/50/45 - 4 - $1.4m
Kyle Muller - 27 - 40/50/45/50 - 4 - $1.4m
Cam Alldred - 28 - 45/55/45/50 - 4 - $1.5m
In terms of batters, there's another 8 players who received offers from us. Again, all of these deals are for 1 year only.
