Where there any surprises on or off the list?

ETA: I was surprised neither Trinadad nor Severino were there.
Always ready to go to a game.

I frankly haven't had too much time yet to digest the list. However, I think you can make a general statement that guys who are likely to be assigned to SS rosters are not as likely be invited to the mini-camp. The reason being is that those players will be in extended spring training and they'll have all sorts of instruction over a 2-3 month period prior to the Appy/NY-P seasons gearing up.

So I think that does raise the possibility that Trinidad and Severino may be headed to Tri-City (which isn't necessarily a shocker).

But having said the above, I wouldn't want to bet the farm that the reverse is true: that everybody in the mini-camp is definitely headed to a full-season roster. Ralphie Henriquez, being the most prominent example there (besides, with all those pitchers in the mini-camp you're gonna need more than a few catchers around).
