I don't recognize most of those names, hopefully see some surprises in the mix

Don Thompson-Williams is cleared to play. I’ve been curious about him since he came over in the Pax deal.

No Kirby is probably the biggest surprise. Interesting that they didn't include Kelenic and Gilbert, but I expect those 2 to play a lot in spring training. Is this part of AFL? Is there going to be an AFL as well?

Seems like it is a replacement for the AFL. Guessing the 3 you mention got all the action in Tacoma and these guys need to catch up.

I'm just surprised about Kirby because he only has 23 innings in the minors. But I guess it's probably about how many innings they got in Tacoma? Either way, How much work could Kirby and Gilbert have gotten in about 2 months. I'm also a little surprised that Raleigh is on the roster given I think he's about the same point in his progression as the guys they left off.

One of the guys I didn't recognize has one of the greatest names I've seen for a pitching prospect. Luis Curvello. If his best pitch isn't a nasty 12-6 curve, I'll be disappointed

I counted 22 names I remembered and some big ones like Hancock, Sam Carlson, and Julio.
