Santander is 1 for his last 13 over the last week.

I thought spring training stats didn't matter. Funny how people change their mind on this by the end of ST.

Santander seeing a lot of breaking pitches and not have much success lately.

I'll take him and the youth and power over an old BABIP relying dude like Presley.

Also.. NO one is hitting that nasty curve that he saw today, assuming that's what you're referring to.

Oh, Santander will make the team.  But he may not get as much playing time as he was projected to get a week ago.

Alvarez is a wasted roster spot. What a dumb move. I'd rather Flaherty.

I sure hadn't.

Need at least 3 cuts to the 40 man.  Four if it is indeed Alverez making the team.

Ynoa, Kelly, Vielma, Chricton. Maybe Lee to the 60 day DL. Those would be my top choices.

If Ynoa is injured he can't be DFA'd.

Well we will probably DL him. Keep him in extended ST, then send him on the 30 day milb rehab assignment. Any SP with a pulse has a chance to pitch for us this SP.

Pedro makes sense. Buck seems to be OK with Valencia as the backup and moving guys around in an emergency.

I am less happy about Joely and Edgin both starting in the minors. Seems like a decision based on roster management rather than the best 25. Castro doesn't seem right to me, and Tillman and Wright haven't earned anything. I just don't think we can afford to be carrying that many guys who are struggling.
