Maybe the Giants claim Casey as a result. After all, he is a 26 year old outfielder who hasn't hit well in AAA. That seems to be one of FZ's favorites, after middle infielders and catchers/middle infielders.

Name isn’t familiar

He was one of Sabean's minor league signees for, I believe, the 2017 season. He had a good season the year before in AA but couldn't translate it to AAA. I had no idea he was still around.

Late last year, the Giants claimed him off waivers from the Cubs, only to dfa him and stash him in the minor leagues for the three weeks of the minor league season and then let him walk as a free agent. This after claiming him on waivers from the Angels in January 2020 and quickly dfaing him within the same week. Why not do it a third time?

True. Just polish him up and watch him gleam.
