Thoughts on 40 Man Roster

Initially let me say that the current roster does not compare to that of the Cubs or Dodgers, but as I look at the players on the 40 man it would be difficult to DFA somebody if the Bucs signed a free agent to a major league contract. If you look at the outfielders on the roster the only non MLB player is Osuna. I don't think they want to lose him on a waiver claim. Possibly Gift N. or Bostick could be waived if a player was added. There are only three catchers on the roster and they won't waive them.I think they want to give Webb a shot during spring training and my guess is they like LeBlanc. In my opinion if they wanted to add a player I think a trade would have to happen before a new player was added.
