McDougal will probably be up first, but Charlotte is not an easy place to pitch for anyone. According to reports they were told before Spring Training began. Both of them and Smith.

Maybe they do but their stats don't show it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If Acuna moves to second, Meidroth sits Sosa is clearly a better hitter. Antonacci is pushing it. I'm just thinking out loud, but if me makes the team out of ST, as expected, and gets off to a slow start offensively, it could happen.

Alberto pitched okay. The guy from the RedSox really had no chance from the outset. I guess they might have some deal worked out (the Rays owe us). It would be unfortunate to just cut Gilbert and Eisert (perhaps he has options?). I'll never understand Mead Just cut Benitendi Edited 7 hours ago by GreenSox Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'll never understand Mead Just cut Benitendi If they keep Lee on the roster, that means they want to put Teel and Quero at DH on their catching off days. That makes Benintendi useless. Sosa also has to play as often as possible. The other thing about Pope's guess is that the outfield has 4 OFs, two of which will back up the infield, and one of which they want to primarily DH. I don't believe they're going to eat 2 years of Benintendi's salary. Lee and Mead both have to be raking to make the roster. I'd say one of Lee or Mead has to go to make room for Kelenic or Pereira. I'd expect Pereira to open the season on the IL. I suppose in a perfect world, they'd cut Benintendi, trade Lee, then roster Kelenic and Hill (or Pereira if he's fit).
