Probably.
I just don't know why everyone's got their panties in a knot about making room for a guy who's got a good bat, questionable (at best) plate discipline and no position. He should be a DH, that's it. I don't care if the DH spot is traditionally looked at as a place where old but good hitters with bad knees go to die, we've seen so many traditional ways of going about things in baseball shattered over the past few years.
If the Tampa Bay Rays can contend for a playoff berth with the opener strategy, no one can tell me that you can't take a young hitter who LOOKS ATHLETIC (I'm convinced that's why we're trying to find him a position, if he was a fatass like Vlad Jr, we'd be singing a different story) but can't hack it with the glove and just tell him to DH. Focus on your hitting, stop worrying about your glove, get better at taking walks. That's all he should be doing. All this crap about trying to figure out where he's gonna play is trying to fit a square peg in a round hole.
Anyway, back to Santander. I've railed on here for years that Rule 5 picks are a waste. I'm glad to see one work out. I'll amend my stance to say that Rule 5 pitchers are a waste.
