BATTERS: 2019 Non-roster invitees

Non-roster invitees (NRI) are players on minor-league contracts who are not already on their team's 40-man rosters. They can include veterans who are looking to latch on to a new team, as well as top prospects who don't have a day of service time in the major leagues.

Most NRI batters won't provide value in 2019, but those that do can generate a lot of profit for you because you'll be able to get them for nothing on draft day. Guys like Alen Hanson and Eric Young Jr. were non-roster invitees at this time last season.

Let's take a look at this year's group of hitting NRI who have been invited to spring camps, with an emphasis on non-prospects who could be worth a look in your end-game if you play in a deep league.
