Yes, but they’ve been counting one pitcher more than I know of, so if it’s not Kopech, then I’m missing somebody. Rodon, Nova, Giolito, Lopez, Covey, Banuelos, Santana Burr, Colome, Frare, Fry, Herrera, Jones, Hamilton, Ruiz, Marshall, Thompson That’s 17. If there’s an 18th, it’s either Kopech or somebody I missed.

Pretty much have to platoon Alonso though so he doesn't hit his vesting option. RHP: Jay CF, Moncada 3B, Eloy LF, Abreu DH, Alonso 1B, Castillo C, Palka LF, Anderson SS, Sanchez 2B LHP: Jay RF, Sanchez 2B, Eloy LF, Abreu 1B, Castillo C, Anderson SS, Moncada 2B, Palka/Rondon DH, Engel CF

Between him and Rondon they should be able to cover for Alonso against LHP.

March 23, 20196 yr I know there are people on this board that like Jay but I do not understand any value in playing him most days. He was an overpaid stupid gamble on Hahn's part. Let Leury get more at bats to build up his value as a possible trade piece. We will get nothing for Jay at the trade deadline.

After the spring Leury's had, I want him playing as much as possible (presuming health). Be it in CF or 2B.

I imagine Jay could be had for a song and a discount right now. They could open with 12 pitchers but then someone, maybe Engel could later be at risk. It would be too embarrassing to just release Jay. Once you have 13 arms and two catchers that leaves ten guys to play the field and DH. Abreu Alonso Yoan Yolmer TA Eloy Jay Palka leaves room for two. Rondon Engel Leury compete for two spots. Jay seems to be in the way of Engel having a spot. Either move Jay or demote Engel.
