Sox require a number of quality reserves given their injury issues. However others like the Twins are in a similar situation. Conditioning should provide more emphasis on flexibility and avoiding injuries.
I do think minor rosters are smaller but must be flexible. There must be some fringey types like Max Marmalade who can fill in the gaps as prospects are promoted. Even Victor Reyes might have to stand down for the next Michael Jordan coming through.
Burger is a failure at 3B, Elvis and Romeo have been a disappointment. Pablo Lopez no problema. Lopez is at or near Cease's pitching level most would agree.
