Free Agent Signing
Looking at our depth chart going into spring training we were missing a defensive specialist. So we reached out to Joe Payne a free-agent middle infielder and offered him a 1-year 1 million dollar contract. He jumped all over it... He is 27 years old, plays SS at a 20, 2B at 17, LF at 18, 3B at 12 and CF at 7. His range is 19. I am pretty sure he will fill our void of that missing utility man.
Paynes rating for hitting aren't the best, but he should be able to produce. Contact: 10/10, Gap: 9/9, Power: 4/4, Eye: 8/8 and Avoid K's 14/14. Last season he hit .235-4-38 in 133 games for the Chesapeake Blue Claws.
Roster break-down coming up.
