Red Sox News: Chandler Shepherd's Journey Continues

Chandler Shepherd, a right-handed pitcher, has been making waves in the baseball world. After being outrighted off the 40-man roster after the season, he remained with the organization and was briefly called up to the Orioles' roster this year before being designated for assignment in August.

Shepherd joined the Orioles on a waiver claim in May 2019 and made his MLB debut last season, posting a respectable ERA of 6.63 over 19 innings. His journey didn't end there, as he has recently been released by the Orioles to make room for Victor Gonzalez, an infield prospect acquired from the Mets.

Gonzalez, who is only 17 years old, signed with the Mets as part of their 2019-20 international signing class, inking a deal worth $250K. He hasn't officially begun his pro career yet, having missed out on the 2020 minor league season due to the COVID-19 pandemic.

Meanwhile, the Twins have also been making moves, signing outfielder Keon Broxton to a minor league contract with an invitation to MLB spring training. Broxton has had his share of struggles in recent years, but he could emerge as a useful backup option for the Twins. Despite his recent stats being less than impressive, he has put up defensive numbers that suggest he could be a valuable asset.

In other news, the Twins have added several players to their roster, including right-handers Andrew Albers and Robinson Leyer, as well as Chandler Shepherd. These moves will surely shake things up in the Twins' organization, and fans are eagerly awaiting the upcoming season to see how these new additions pan out.

As for Shepherd, his journey continues, and it's exciting to think about what the future holds for this talented pitcher. Only time will tell if he'll find himself back on an MLB roster soon.
