We’ll use this post to track the day’s minor moves:
- The Indians have added righty Mitch Talbot on a minors deal, per MLBTR’s Steve Adams (via Twitter). He’ll join the rotation at Triple-A Columbus, taking the place of the recently promoted Adam Plutko. Talbot last appeared in the majors with the Indians way back in 2011 and had not been with an MLB organization since 2013. In the interim, he has pitched in the independent leagues and KBO. Last year, Talbot spun 110 innings of 3.03 ERA ball with 8.8 K/9 and 2.5 BB/9 for the Sugar Land Skeeters.
is this a joke?!
Seriously? I figured he was long retired.
A blast from the past. Oh wait…..
What a comeback story this would be if he somehow ends up making his way back to the majors.
I was literally just looking at his numbers the other day because he was on an independent league roster that I was looking through. It was a blast from the past, but I didn’t think he’d come back.
