Not really.

If Tim got hurt, the top minor league SS is Laz Rivera who hit .248/.287/.318 in AA last season. Then maybe Yolbert Sanchez who hasn't even played stateside yet.  

So yah, I'd say he's SS insurance in Charlotte.

I'd imagine that there's a 50/50 chance if he's not brought up with the big club when rosters go to 26 in March he's cut loose and tries his luck in another org.  I think he's insurance in case TA suffers a major injury in spring training, god forbid.

Insurance in this case assumes protection against injury.  Romine is just a whole lotta bad.  I think I’d rather see Leury at SS and Mendick is probably better insurance than Romine anyways.

I played him on FanDuel a handful of times when he was in Detroit because he was always minimum priced and sometimes I needed a punt play. 

I also watch the Tigers on TV a lot since I live in Detroit. Man, is he hopeless at the plate. His career OPS is even lower than Engel.
