Why All the Retreads at AAA?

A few fans have questioned why the Dodgers have a plethora of “retreads,” “has-beens,” “never were’s,” and “wannabees” at AAA OKC. Now, I do not want to disrespect the ability it takes and the work it requires to say nothing of the talent needed to play at the AAA level. Many of these guys have played 5, 10, 15… even 20 years chasing a dream… one that they may or may not achieve. Specifically, the Dodgers have the following players:

  • Matt Andriese – Age 34 this year
  • Dylan Covey – Age 32 this year
  • William Cuevas – Age 33 this year
  • Tyler Cyr – Age 30 this year
  • Robbie Erlin – Age 33 this year
  • Adam Kolarek – Age 34 this year
  • Tayler Scott – Age 31 this year
  • David Freitas – Age 34 this year
  • Patrick Mazeika – Age 30 this year

Then they have Steven Duggar, Bradley Zimmer, Ben DeLuzio, and others are also on the AAA roster.
