Braves acquire Tuffy Gosewisch

[dak]

I assume this is a waiver claim given it's Rule 5 roster setting day? Only thing I can figure is that he has one or more options remaining and they want to stash him in AAA.

If they feel the need to carry a guy like Tuffy on the 40-man as AAA depth, that does not bode well for the prospect of keeping Recker. It was always a long shot.

Also, the 40-man is now full once this transaction is processed.

Odd move unless the waive Recker.

 

[The Tariff King]

Goodness Gosenwich.

 

[Enscheff]

Going all in!

What a name.

**** Sale, **** Castro and Frazier. We're riding with Tuffy Gosewisch.

Statistics suggest that offensively, he's not as good as Recker. What's his defensive reputation?

Nothing has changed. Front office still trying to get by with making these additions. Two old pitchers and now some AAAA catcher. This is going to be so fun watching all you homers be disappointed come April.
