It will be interesting to see what happens when Moncada gets back into camp. When Moncada is going good, he hits #2 like he did for Cuba. But if Benny hits #3, then Moncada is probably gonna hit #5.

If it happens with a full complement of players, then I might start to worry. I don't like that it seems to be a trend, but it is only spring still.

CaliSoxFanViaSWside Posted March 23, 2023 Share Posted March 23, 2023 4 starters missing. Vaughn, Anderson, Moncada and Colas. Vaughn and Moncada are injury related. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tray Posted March 23, 2023 Share Posted March 23, 2023 11 days out for Vaughn so far. I hope his back is OK so he can start Opening Day. If Vaughn's back becomes an issue it would be great to have both Burger and Sheets on the roster to give him some rest during the season. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If Vaughn's back becomes an issue it would be great to have both Burger and Sheets on the roster to give him some rest during the season. Having both burger and sheets severely limits the versatility and defensive capability of the bench. If Vaughn is out, Sheets is probably our 1st baseman and Burger is probably sent to Charlotte. Man I hope this back issue isn't anything serious. Those can linger and be career-altering and even career-ending (Joe Crede). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

4uckOffCommieScum Posted March 23, 2023 Share Posted March 23, 2023 They’d give you the strongest lineup with starters out of the lineup, though. Imagine Robert, Anderson and Moncada out of the lineup then you’d have a lineup like: Andrus SS Benintendi LF Eloy RF Grandal Vaughn 1b Sheets DH Burger 3b Colas CF Alberto 2b That’s a better lineup than what you are going to get with any other combo, and that’s with the three key skill positions out, besides catcher Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My fantasy sports app told me that Merkin reported that Vaughn would play in a Minor League spring training game tomorrow.
