Well it looks like Weeks at 2B.

AGon at 3b, Flaherty mainly with an occasional Weeks at 2b.

No I think Flash plays 3B v RHP and AGonz v LHP. Weeks can only play 2B.

Good point. Lots of options no doubt.

Good news. Hopefully he improves during the year and becomes a bullpen option somewhere down the line.

I'm glad that De La Cruz cleared waivers and can now serve as depth in the organization. That's two in a row now (Chris Jones) after the team lost Paredes and Hendriks earlier this year.

Now, let's see if Monell will clear as well...

Very cool. I'm really glad we didn't lose him.

DD does a good job of figuring out when to slip guys through. I'm not surprised De La Cruz made it through at a time when teams are really struggling to find room on both 25 and 40-man rosters.

De La Cruz I saw work twice this spring. Lefty with a low 90's fastball, some shoulder turning deception, and a decent slider. Glad to have him as depth.

Must spread rep. Thanks for the on-site insight.

As with Betemit last year. This does not mean depth. This means he goes on the DL then on a rehab assignment then through waivers.

Why is De La Cruz on the DL?

He already made it through waivers, and I don't think he's headed to the DL. Am I missing something?

You are thinking of Escalona, maybe.
