Dick Allen Posted April 10, 2022 Share Posted April 10, 2022 Considering how many teams had nothing to lose, color me shocked. I thought he might bounce to a couple of teams and then clear. Hopefully he makes the teams that passed regret it. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CentralChamps21 Posted April 10, 2022 Share Posted April 10, 2022 What do the Orioles have that they couldn't use a roster spot on him? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SoxFan562004 Posted April 10, 2022 Share Posted April 10, 2022 Would be interesting to see external scouting reports on him. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SoxBlanco Posted April 10, 2022 Share Posted April 10, 2022 (edited) Wow, very surprising. Somebody called this a week or so ago and got laughed at. EDIT: Just found the post. It was @bmags. Great call. Edited April 10, 2022 by SoxBlanco 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bmags Posted April 10, 2022 Share Posted April 10, 2022 Happy he’s back, if this was 2019 mlb with 15 teams rebuilding he’d have found a team. Hope he goes to Charlotte, cuts his k rate to mid twenties and keeps hittin bombs 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Harry Chappas Posted April 10, 2022 Share Posted April 10, 2022 So what happens to him now? Can he be called up then have to clear waivers again if sent down? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CentralChamps21 Posted April 10, 2022 Share Posted April 10, 2022 Just now, Harry Chappas said: So what happens to him now? Can he be called up then have to clear waivers again if sent down? Yes. If he were ever to get called up he's still be out of options. Plus he's have to be re-added to the 40 man roster. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He really needs minor league at-bats to find what his approach will be in the majors. You know if ST was any indication of his approach I was actually impressed. I don't like to compare anyone with Robert but if it was Menechino and hard work from Robert that had him going the opposite way and cutting down on K's, that's exactly what I saw Micker doing. Still has a way to go but with his power if he can improve his hit tool and be more selective I like his chances. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Think its more than a little surprising teams like Baltimore, KC, Oakland, Washington, Miami, Pittsburgh, Arizona, Colorado wouldn't take a roll of the dice. All it costs is a roster spot, and if he sucks, you cut him. Good news for the Sox though, even if he's still unlikely to make it to the bigs in 22. I assume he'll be milb FA at the end of this season if not added back to 40 man? 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
