FT35 Posted August 8, 2017 Share Posted August 8, 2017 (edited) QUOTE (Balta1701 @ Aug 8, 2017 -> 02:23 PM) Obviously the DH and the DL creates some space to drop people, and not all of those guys are going to be successful, but if you get 1 successful big leaguer out of them by giving them playing time and seeing what they can develop into, you've substantially strengthened your roster. If Engel jumps out to a .775 OPS next year we're suddenly looking at a really valuable player. Would you put "Tim Tebow" in the top 5 of "guys with a nonzero chance of helping out this team long term" from that list? If you don't think he can help this team long term, then play the guys you have and see if someone turns themselves into a big leaguer. Great post. Only way I'm entertaining the thought of signing him is if I truly believe in him as a baseball player, believe him to be an upgrade over another player and can help the team win. But the same goes for anyone NOT named Tim Tebow. Honestly, he's shown some flashes--people viewing him as a legitimate baseball player aren't too far off their rocker--even with the small sample size.
