Some roster things to clean up:

Astros are 2 draftees short and 3 roster positions over.

I suggest cutting:

Eddy Alvarez (not in baseball)
Paxton Schultz (currently in IL, projection is bland)
Matt Vierling (bench OF, bland projection)
Ryan Birchard (middling prospect)
John Faile (25, a ball, unranked)

Then we can leave the draftee roster at 8 and be in compliance.

Guardians are good on the draft roster, but are 3 over the roster limit.

I suggest cutting:

Max Kepler (roids, but still sucks)
Packy Naughton (never really became good)
Joseph Montalvo (not particularly inspiring)

Thoughts?

Good with me.

Fine by me as well.

All good

Saw it already happened but I concur ...
