Will Wagner of the Toronto Blue Jays is permitted to leave the team to attend his father Billy Wagner's Hall of Fame induction. Despite the Blue Jays' concerns about losing him due to his recent performance, the opportunity for Wagner is significant. Alan Roden has been promoted from Triple-A to temporarily fill the roster spot. Roden aims to prove himself before the MLB Trade Deadline, although he faces competition. His strong performance in Triple-A includes a 150 wRC+ and an impressive .918 OPS, enhancing his value to the team due to his defensive skills.
Blue Jays promote Alan Roden to the big leagues, allowing Will Wagner to attend father Billy Wagner's induction to Hall of Fame.
Roden has been doing well in Triple-A since his previous demotion and is hoping to catch fire to stay up following the MLB Trade Deadline.
Typically with those offensive numbers, that would make him a negative WAR player and his glove saves him, marking as a very valuable asset to this team.
His numbers in Triple-A have been remarkable, posting a 150 wRC+ with a .918 OPS and a higher walk rate of 11.3% than his strikeout rate of 9.2%.
