OK, NY needs to set their 40 man by Nov 18, not so much time. Let's see:
SP (6): Cole, Cortes, Severino (Cashman has said his option will be picked up), Montas, German, Schmidt
RP (14) : Holmes, Loaisiga, King, Marinaccio, Luetge, Peralta, Trevino, Weissert, Abreu, Ridings, Garcia, Gomez, Effross, Gil
C (3): Trevino, Higashioka, Rortvedt
IF (6): Torres, LeMahieu, Peraza, Cabrera, IKF, Donaldson
OF (5): Stanton, Bader, Hicks, Florial, Pereira
That is 34 guys currently on the 40 man, I don't know how many of these guys will be added. I starred some of the more likely ones, soon people who know more about this than me will make their guesses and I'll bump this thread.
================================================
Catchers: Josh Breaux, *Antonio Gomez, Anthony Seigler
Infielders: Alex Vargas, *Andres Chaparro
Outfielders: Anthony Garcia, Ryder Green, Brandon Lockridge, Jeisson Rosario
Righties: Juan Carela, *Jhony Brito, *Matt Sauer, *Randy Vasquez, Tyrone Yulie
Lefties: Edgar Barclay, *Matt Krook, Matt Minnick
================================================
Maybe some of the pitchers, especially since a few of the currently protected ones will go on the 60 day as soon as possible (Effross, Gil), Brito, Sauer, Vazquez. The catchers are all fascinating, Gomez is the most likely to be able to play there in the bigs but the farthest away. Chaparro is a 23 year old Venezuelan 3B who destroyed AA down the stretch this season. He hit a ball 117 MPH in the AFL last year, most major leaguers never hit even one that hard.
Also NY could clear out some of the above 34, Deivi Garcia has been a total waste of a 40 man spot for a while now (sorry Deivi).
