Free Agents Who Aren't Available Yet
Posted: Thu Apr 01, 2004 2:45 am
Everyone, there are 11 players who were invited to major league camps this spring signed to minor league contracts who aren't available yet for FAAB bids. Unfortunately, they weren't on 40-man major league rosters when they signed and haven't officially been added to their respective teams' 25-man Opening Day roster. MLB teams have 12 hours before their first game to finalize their 25-man rosters and thus it's possible that these guys will be added just before our Sunday 7 p.m. EST FAAB deadline or even after that. If they are added after our deadline, these players will be pushed back to our next FAAB deadline.
I'm not trying to give away any free agent sleepers, but these 11 players are currently not in the free agent pool, but will be once they are officially added to the 25-man MLB rosters (if they make the team, that is):
Mike Bordick
Royce Clayton
Tony Womack
Denny Hocking
Jose Lima
Mark Sweeney
Shawn Estes
Jeff D'Amico
Greg Norton
Travis Lee
Bruce Chen
Erik Bedard
Kit Pellow
Danny Haren
Ramon Nivar
I believe Ray Lankford is also in this mix, but I'm not sure of that right now. Good luck everyone and keep watching the free agent list over the weekend because it could change as teams finalize their rosters.
