And Avi stays up for....?

As long as he's better than Coats/Avi then I'll be happy. That isn't too hard to do

 

Pretty much all of the "He can't be worse than X" decisions we've made have been wrong, they can all be that bad.

At this pace he'll be unstoppable at Great Falls

Oh man I just LOL'd so hard.

Justin Morneau is 28 plate appearances into his rehab. He thought he might need 20-30. Spring training is normally 50 or so.

 

I just have this terrible feeling the Sox are going to call Morneau the "Trade-Deadline Acquisition" and he's going to blow.

The good news is he will be with the team for 2 weeks before the deadline so he can be evaluated. I would totally agree with you if he wasn't going to be ready until after the deadline.

 

If Mourneau isn't swinging well they bring in another hitter IMO.

Morneau not in Birminghams lineup tonight

Most likely on his way to California without the pressure of a late night flight after the game. Probably will be in Anaheim this evening and get a lot of rest for the game.

If the "rumor" they are trying to trade for a CF is true, I think that is the bat and Morneau is here regardless of his production.

Main thing to take away from Morneau's stint is that he hasn't struck out much at all. That means he's not getting blown away by live competition.

And, if he actually had the opportunity to face Charlotte's staff, his OPS would 1.000+.
