       Seems unlikely because he'd get major league service time.
       But, as you say, it will be interesting.

       Deeg, yeah, that looks fine.  What is the statistical basis of
       the question about his velocity?  Average, or peak?  Everybody
       takes something off on easy throws, but he seems to do that to
       greater extreme, which might depress his average velocity?

       His max and average velocity on his arm is similar to Nick
       Madrigal.  87 max/78 average.  Hoerner was 90/85.  Baez was
       92/87 with the Cubs.

       Assuming no Canario move, what’s your best guess is the 40-man
       move to make room for a NRI reliever?

       Tough call, but maybe McKinstry out and Craig's boy or Morel in?
       
       DFA of Wick or Sampson?  They're probably not in danger of being
       lost with their contracts.

       Thanks Jeff.  Those are thoughtful options.  It seems like
       Wick's window of opportunity may be closing.
       With Canario:  How much do you think the service time would
       matter?
       Unlikely, but I can imagine a scenario where he's back playing
       baseball by late June; finishes the summer well; and then some
       injury early next season enables him to get a very early callup.
       He finishes in top-3 of ROY and earns the Cubs an extra draft
       pick.  I'd hate to lose the draft pick for a couple dozen
       Tauchman AB's this spring.

       Tauchman isnt worth worrying about.
