The MLB offseason is on hold while the league is in lockout, leaving us without any major transactions for the past five weeks and counting. While we wait, let’s keep an eye on minor league moves.
The Oakland A’s signed pitcher Ryan Castellani to a minor league contract in November, reported Chris Hilburn-Trenkle of Baseball America. This news is from before the lockout began, though the work stoppage wouldn’t have prevented it from happening since it’s a non-roster deal.
The right-handed Castellani spent his entire career until now in the Rockies organization, working almost exclusively as a starter.
