From that time to the end of the season, he OPSed .793. He needs reps to become a better defensive OF. I don't believe it makes any sense to waste his PAs in AAA. I believe he's secured one OF spot. They have around 5-6 AAA/AAAA guys who can battle for playing time with whatever Mike Tauchman they bring in. Acuna in CF, Pereira in RF, maybe Kelenic makes the team with a strong spring showing.

Baldwin - Acuna - Kelenic is the OF I would like to see work out to start the season.

Yeah RF seems like the lock to be rotated through with guys throughout the year. Baldwin and Acuna should be given every opportunity to stick.
