WSD was super hyperbolic, but I do think there's some truth to the idea that they wouldn't put this together if they were planning on running a AAAA team out there.
1)Because they’re playing with a super ball that they weren’t playing with in 2015. The average OPS is 40 points higher league wide.
2) there are more good hitters but the bad hitters are WAY worse.
They also have to carry an extra guy after several years of three man benches. A 26th man who's mostly a bum is probably going to be extremely common league wide.
They have much bigger fish to fry, and if a guy who can play average shortstop is who you end up giving 3 at bats a week too, I'm not going to cry about it. Leury should play damn near everyday though.
Leury should be the first man off the bench at just about any position, but I wouldn't hate having goins around if multiple subs are needed on a given day. Yolmer is too expensive for what he gives.
