Why do we have his pants?

Wouldn't they be team property?

What a strange tweet!

ST uniforms are probably custom to fit each player, and I suspect the lower end guys dont mind keeping them, to offset costs.

Urruita played the second half of last year for Saltillo where in about 300 PAs he hit .407/.467/.795, good for a 1.262 OPS.

Anybody remember Dariel Alvarez, briefly made it to the O's in 2015-16, and tried pitching briefly in '18?  He was also on Saltillo, he OPS'd .818.  The whole team hit .309/.371/.511 and went 66-53.  Sergio Mitre (Yanks, Cubs, Brewers) went 9-3 with a 5.59.

I think he just left a few pairs of uniform pants around the complex in Sarasota so he could pop in each season and hope to get a minor league deal.

He flew in to Miami to pick up some pants?  Must be some really nice pants.

Payroll is so tight they can't ship the dude a pair of pants?

Everything about this is so weird lol, and Roch gives absolutely no context. 

I love it.

Always needed a ugly pair of jeans for $250,000.

Henry has a history of playing the pants card:

Quote

 

BOWIE — On his first off day as an Orioles minor leaguer, Double-A Bowie outfielder Henry Urrutia took a trip to Baltimore, where he got a tour of Camden Yards — the place he hopes his uphill and divot-filled baseball journey reaches its pinnacle.

Thursday, Urrutia checked out the Orioles clubhouse, strolled up the steps of the home dugout and walked onto the field, where he took a 360-degree look around him and soaked in what seemed impossible growing up in Cuba. It was a memorable trip for the 26-year-old Urrutia — because it was the truest sign yet that his dream of playing in the big leagues was in reach.

But his trip to Baltimore also had another purpose.

"Honestly he needed a pair of pants," said Eric Cormell, a minor league coach whom the Orioles have assigned to help Urrutia with his transition to playing baseball in the United States. "That was the real reason, because we didn't have pants long enough for him here since he's such a tall guy."
