Sclafani

Neither player was expected to make the big league roster out of spring training. Sclafani, 24, batted .315/.384/.405 between Double-A and Triple-A last season while the 25-year-old Jankowski had a 3.58 ERA with 10.0 K/9 and 2.2 BB/9 over 14 starts and 16 relief appearances in Double-A.

Sclafani didn’t do much this spring in the Grapefruit League and he had an underwhelming .709 OPS in 75 games last season between Double-A and Triple-A. The 25-year-old second baseman will have to settle for a minor league contract on the open market.
