MLB Teams can Carry 60 players on their spring training roster. 40-Man roster + 20 Non-Roster Invitees
Which players do you think will be invited?
I think Julks makes it for sure, I really hope Wagner gets an invite, Leon I think will be injured and miss Spring Training this season, I’m sure there are a few pitchers we test out, and probably a Catcher or 2 as well.
A lot of our better prospects are in the lower minors right now, or already on the 40-man, so I really am not too sure who gets the invite to spring training this season.
