Re: Some Az Fall League info Showing up
Looking on the Reds site this morning, I saw under transactions, it announced that Boxberger was "assigned to Cincinnati Reds." I'm guessing this is a procedural transaction that doesn't mean much. Afterall, even if they believed he has a shot out of spring training, there's no need to put him on the 40 man on this point since he's not subject to the Rule 5 draft. It struck me as curious though.
[Note: I remember getting a copy of our friend's transaction card with the Red while we were at the baseball Hall of Fame - yes, they pulled it out for us!. They had shuffled his contract all over the place particularly when he was in the service. There were like six or seven transactions and he said he'd never played for any of those clubs.]
