Pretty sure a Sox site (South Side Sox maybe?) kicked around the idea earlier this week Lee for Perlaza (forgot his first name). A 26-YO switch-hitting MI feels about right but guess I’d rather have a lotto ticket arm in this kind of move.

Yonathan Perlaza: https://www.baseball-reference.com/register/player.fcgi?id=perlaz000yon

A return like that feels about right for Korey Lee but would rather maybe have an arm instead.

I'd rather have Lee up so they bat Quero/Teel everyday, but whatever.  They could bat them everyday, but Venable/Getz seem adverse to possibly being exposed for using a PH in the remote chance one get(z) hurt.

You might as well trade Lee, who might have a little value, rather than sit him and never play him though. A guy like Blake Sabol (or any bad waiver claim) can come up and sit on bench.

Edit: plus, Sabol has experience at 1B and in the OF so he wouldn't just strictly have to be a 3rd catcher rotting on the bench. He can be depth at multiple spots.

That's fine.  I just want the nonsense of one of them sitting half the week to stop.
