Another round of cuts: Alex Zapete, Henry Nunez, and Eduardo Vaughan. Zapete and Vaughan were tentatively scheduled by the site to be on the Salem bench (I know they're just projections). It'll be interesting to see who from the FCL squad gets the bump up to replace them in Low-A. The outfield in Fort Meyers has a couple of options, but the infield is light with either recent draftees or guys that haven't even played stateside yet. Don't really see anyone in Greenville that could drop down to fill the roster spot really.

With Mikey Romero out for now, they didn't have anyone on the bench that has ever played a game at 2B or SS. But then I remembered Salazar. He's listed as a catcher now but he can still play those middle infield positions. And yeah, they're not exciting players or promotions or anything like that, but it's a fun thought process to see who can go from level to level. Even if they're just a minor league depth guy, I will always root for the guys that get sent up to a new league.

Even if they're just a minor league depth guy, I will always root for the guys that get sent up to a new league. Well first, Romero shouldn't be long. I'm guessing he only misses a week or two. Second, even if, say, Coffey doesn't make the team, there's still Ravelo as the primary SS, Liendo can probably play SS once a week or something, and they could do something like leave Simas down there to play 2B a couple times a week or something. If Coffey makes the team, then there are no issues even without Romero, and there will be issues with PT when he comes back. Also, based on what I hear, they're very happy with how Salazar has taken to catching. I bet he almost exclusively plays there this year.

Speaking of what you hear, I'm not saying there will be a riot in the streets if the Spring Training pod doesn't drop soon, but... I mean, it's not like you have a day job
