One of the first things we learned about Scott Harris, was to expect ravenous sampling from the waiver wire and minor league free agent pool. So far, that characteristic has been the most obvious expression of the new Detroit Tigers front office’s approach to roster building through a quiet first offseason to date. Just in the past two weeks they’ve picked up Zach Logue and catcher Marco Feliciano, released Bligh Madris, who they’d previously claimed, signed Castro to a minor league deal, and then traded cash for Tyler Nevin, releasing Logue again in the process.
Of all this tier of players, recent minor league signing right-hander Kervin Castro could have the most impact in 2023.
