Any of the players cut last year catch on elsewhere? Would also be curious of past years cuts if any ever made it to the bigs.

Conducting a brief search, it doesn't appear anyone from the initial list has signed elsewhere, unless I'm missing someone. A few might play indy ball, but it's unlikely that more than one or two will sign. Someone like Zamora could get another chance since he's only 19.

I can't say for certain, but I would be surprised if past years cuts made it to the majors. The vast majority fall into a category of lower-level guys who couldn't get past A-ball. Perhaps there's a case or two of a minor league veteran who played in the upper levels, was cut, and got a cup of coffee elsewhere. But, usually, minor league veterans become free agents first.
