    He hasn't cleared rehab yet. It's not typical slow and steady Spring Training stuff this year with Devers.
  2. mvp 78
    Devers remains injured and Campbell isn't ready. I have no idea where Devers' shoulder is at. He took some fielding today, so maybe he's on the right track?
  3. mvp 78
    And I'm not slagging on Mayer when I say those things. I think his biggest fault has been his ability to stay healthy. Easing him into the season may be better for him anyway this year. He's almost ready. It'll be exciting when he finally gets the call.
  4. mvp 78
    Even if Mayer is crushing AAA pitching in Spring Training, I think he needs to go to AAA for at least a few months. He has platoon splits and struggles with offspeed stuff more so than either Campbell or Anthony. He's not as ready as the other two. Spring Training results aren't always indicative of future success (Yairo Munoz, Pedro Ciriaco, et al).
  5. mvp 78
    He may be in BOS at some point for sure, I just don't think it'll be in April.

    Romy and Hamilton aren't starting players. They just aren't. If they can't handle part time roles, they can be DFA'd and be replaced by Grissom/Toro/Sogard and the difference would be negligible.

    If Campbell isn't on the roster: Devers 3b Bregman 2b If Devers is unable to play 3b and Campbell is in AAA: Bregman 3b Grissom/Romy/Hamilton 2b all take turns fumbling the bag until Campbell is ready (it's what they've tried the past 2 seasons in the middle IF and it has never worked before, so why would it work now?)
  8. mvp 78
    To me, if Bregman is at 3b and there's an opening at 2b, Campbell is getting the first crack at it.
  9. mvp 78
    Toro isn't making the team IMO. He doesn't play SS. He's not on the 40 man. No reason to add him.
  10. mvp 78
    With Romy, the bigger upside play is that he can adequately field more than one position, but Hamilton seems limited to just 2B.

    Is this a crossover post?
  13. mvp 78
    "Yeah, it's honestly for the best if we make Kristian Campbell start in AAA, because he doesn't have enough AB's there. I know he was the MiLB player of the year last year and that there isn't a good solution at 2B, but let's go with Grissom and Hamilton. Hamilton is fast. Grissom was part of the Sale trade and we need to show that we got something out of that trade. I know Grissom played like dog doo last season and Grissom only had a 725 OPS vs RHP last year which we vastly overstate, but we gotta go with those two for some infernal reason."
  14. mvp 78
    Hamilton isn't really all that much to write home about against RHP if he's a strict platoon bat either.
  15. mvp 78
    Really cool that a lineup going Anthony/Campbell/Mayer to lead off isn't on tv... Really cool...

    Today's lineup:
  17. mvp 78
    Color me skeptical.
  18. mvp 78
  19. mvp 78
    I meant Cespedes in the second sentence. Romero is a 2b/3b through and through. He could be good? Hard to say.
  20. mvp 78
    I'm out on Grissom because of how he wears his hat. DFA all day.
  21. mvp 78
    Don't make me keep tapping this sign...
  22. mvp 78
  23. mvp 78
    Yup, we're really getting somewhere with this conversation! 😔
  24. mvp 78
    Because it's not a big deal in house and the team moved on by the end of the day while they were hanging out at Cora's house.
