One of my favorite images from the past season, hanging out at the ballpark before the game, enjoying a sandwich during batting practice. Jesus Sanchez, dropped from last month from the 40-man roster, has signed a minor league deal with the Milwaukee Brewers. Sanchez, who converted to pitching, was the last player left from the Bobby Abreu deal. And so the door closes on the Abreu era. Johan Flande, dropped at the same time as Sanchez, has signed a minor league deal with the Atlanta Braves, who are again stockpiling lefties. Cody Ransom, with the IronPigs the past two seasons, has signed with the Arizona Diamondbacks.
