Padres Re-Sign Logan Gillaspie To Minor-League Deal
The San Diego Padres have signed right-hander Logan Gillaspie to a minor-league deal. Gillaspie will return to the Friars after appearing nine times in relief for the team in 2024, allowing nine earned runs on 15 hits (two home runs) while walking none and striking out seven in only 11 1/3 innings pitched. The 27-year-old also appeared in 44 games out of the bullpen for Triple-A El Paso and went 4-2 with a 3.77 ERA, 1.30 WHIP, seven saves, 42 strikeouts and 19 walks in 45 1/3 innings pitched. Gillaspie made his major-league debut with the Baltimore Orioles in 2022 and also pitched for them in 2023. He has a 5.02 ERA, 1.51 WHIP and 25:8 K:BB in his 37 2/3 relief innings in his three years in the majors. Gillaspie will most likely start the 2025 season back at El Paso and serve as additional relief depth. He's nowhere near the fantasy radar.
The San Diego Padres have claimed pitcher Logan Gillaspie off waivers from the Boston Red Sox. The 26-year-old was claimed by Boston from the Baltimore Orioles in September but never made a big-league appearance with the club while tossing 4 1/3 scoreless frames for their Triple-A affiliate in Worcester. Gillaspie did make 11 appearances for the Orioles in 2023, working to a 6.00 ERA while allowing two homers and five walks across nine innings of work. He also posted a 4.71 ERA and an 11.3% K-BB% across 34 appearances with Triple-A Norfolk in the Orioles organization. He owns a 4.10 ERA across 28 outings and 26 1/3 innings in his big-league career.
