maggsmaggs Posted August 26, 2014 Share Posted August 26, 2014 Should be interesting next year. Have to imagine that we will have a new LF along with Eaton/Garcia. Sierra looks like he probably has done enough to warrant a bench spot, but he doesn't play CF. So Danks probably has a line on another outfield bench spot. But the thoughts of a bench next year of Sierra/Danks/Leury Garcia/Nieto (??) and another INF looks pretty uninspiring. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

At the very least it seems like Semien would have a decent shot at an IF/utility position next year if they wanted to go that way, and depending on what they do at other positions there could be some at bats available at DH for him as well. Leury should clearly not get a chance to be the UT guy again until he does more in the minors to improve with the bat. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If he could just be mediocre, he's a nice guy to have on the bench. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If he could just be mediocre, he's a nice guy to have on the bench. I think he ought to spend the entire year next year at AAA (and I could be convinced if someone made a case for AA out of spring training) playing every day. If developing him was the long-term goal then he should have been at AA as the starting SS every day this year until now. We have higher ranked players and other priorities so its clear they didn't care if they screwed him up, but having him in the bigs did slightly reduce our chances of having a long-term, solid-defense/tolerable bat option out of him.
