One would ride the bench unless the other was DH/1B and Korey Lee has been solid this spring. Even Narvaez has done well today. Expand I realize it's not realistic but I'd at least consider it. Teel, Quero and Lee with them rotating through Catcher and DH. They've been very high on Teel this spring and he and Venable seemed to have forged a bond. It'd be much h for fun to watch for what it's worth. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Need at least 20 at-bats, which is still ridiculously low. Nothing more than a snapshot. Teel has definitely impressed a lot of people this spring, though.

Expand There are some exceptions. Meidroth and Gallo, for example. This spring is probably cementing Drury on the roster, and the lack of playing time might be pushing Baldwin onto the backburner and onto the Charlotte roster (obviously, having to go with Vargas and Sosa because of lack of options hurts him as well). Montgomery's uncertain health is pushing him off the OD roster as well, unless he REALLY tears it up at the plate his last two weeks or so. Shane Smith is currently emerging as a national baseball story due to Spring Training (and being located until Tuesday at the same site as the Dodgers for ST). Yes, there's always Ryan Sweeney and Wilson Betemit counterexamples, too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

chitownsportsfan Posted Tuesday at 02:41 AM Share Posted Tuesday at 02:41 AM (edited) To put a positive post out I like the situation with our young C and SP. There are some green shoots there.
