Red Sox DFA Varvaro

[rico43]

Anthony Varvaro is there to be had.

Had no problem with the job he did with the Braves. How does bringing him back rate with other moves people are considering?

That was quick.

I'll take him back. Let's do it!

Bowman tweeted that Varvaro's elbow has been a concern, not sure if just meant recently or if that was also why we traded him in the first place. It could be both.

That said, I wouldn't be surprised if someone claimed him unless the concerns about his elbow scare them away.

I believe Varvaro had TJ while in college.

So if he needs it again it could be really dicey for him.

 

[Braves1976]

If we were interested in adding Varvaro back, I wouldn't expect that we'd max out our 40-man today with the addition of Veal. So now to add anyone else we'd need to DFA someone.

Or trade AJ for pitching prospects.

Second TJ surgery isnt as bad if its seperated by a long period of time. If he had TJ surgery in college then it was atleast 10 years ago.

I guess he'll have to go back to working in the grocery store. I hope he was saving his pennies for someday like this

Cubs have claimed Varvaro

@JeffPassan: Not a big shocker Jordan Walden went on the DL. Velo down 2.5 mph from last April. He's in 10 Degrees going up later today on big velo dips.

Slightly related to the topic at hand. Looks like Walden is damaged goods.
