OXNARD, Calif. -- As the team arrived in California for the opening of training camp, word filtered through our traveling party that Jeremy Mincey was not on the trip. Unlike several players that choose to make their own way to camp, Mincey was scheduled to travel with the team and the fact that he wasn’t on the trip began to raise questions where he might be.
We later learned that Mincey had missed the flight due to his desire to redo his current contract.
Not knowing how long Mincey might be out, I wanted to take a look at the options that the club has in order to work without him in camp.
