Finalizing 25 man rosters

MrMet · Apr 2, 2016

Now that ST comes to an end, teams are making the all important decisions to finalize their 25 man rosters. Are you happy with how your team is going into Opening Day? Any surprises? Disappointments? Guys you wish made it, or didn't?
Go!

I do not know what to expect from the Yankees this season. So many question marks. I was really looking forward to seeing Bryan Mitchell pitch a full season but a day after the announcement that he made the 25 man roster he is sidelined for three months with a fractured toe. I am not even sure how this happened. It will be fun to watch these young kids that made the roster though. Who knows...

biting my nails to see if Cody Decker makes it (even though the Royals are not my team but I don't dislike watching them). I've seen tweets that seem like he's headed to Triple-A so I won't be surprised if he's the last man cut to make the 25 man limit.

as for other teams, it's hard for me to get excited in spring training as many people are clogging up the major league rosters just to provide some placeholders for the exhibition games. I'll get more excited about Dodgers and rockies rosters once we get a week or two into the season and see if the players on the 25 man roster seem to be worth being there or if they stink out of the gate and you wonder why they made the roster.

Steven Wright!

Tyler Goeddel breaks camp with the Phillies - not bad for a Rule V pick. Former Rays prospect, who stock has risen dramatically.

Trevor Story breaks camp with the Rox - thanks to the Reyes incident and a great ST display.

I love seeing Chris Capuano back on the team with Milwaukee. He didn't have any options, and he pitched pretty well, so he was kind of an obvious choice at the end, but it's still fun to see.

I am still in disbelief that Will Smith will miss so much time because of getting injured putting his damn shoe on...

Was hoping Matt Reynolds or TJ Rivera would break camp with the Mets

I have no expectations of the Reds or the Indians this season.

As usual, the Reds failed to upgrade their pitching and well the Indians..... are just plain awful. But, they are my teams and I will cheer them on.

He was awful for the Yankees but I read he's a super nice guy and does a lot for kids so I'll root for him

It's been awhile since my days of frequently attending/graphing the stadium but Cappy was indeed the nicest, most down to earth guy you'd want to meet. Very happy for him as well and I think he'll be a good presence for the young guys

Plus, with that pick-off move, he'd be the best guy to bring in with runners on base.

Still hoping Drury makes the cut, especially now that ******* has landed on the DL. He's been playing the outfield lately but not well enough to be an outfielder starter. Luckily he can play 2nd & 3rd base plenty well. His versatility is a valuable commodity.

Please explain how the Indians are "awful". Best pitching staff in the league, upgraded power, and a full year from Lindor and Gomes.

Brandon Drury played his way onto the team. "He kind of busted the door down," Hale said.

They still got Beltran? Is he one of the starting outfielders as of now? Kind of miss him in St.Louis :/

I'm happy with the Phillies opening day roster even though they had to put 3 guys on the 60 day DL. Go Phillies!
