No, Chris Davis is going to play first. And if Chris Davis doesn’t play first, which may God grant, Mancini will play first.

Do you think Mancini is good at first?

I can understand that, but a month of baseball there should give the organization an idea of if he can play there. He was playing first base when I saw Norfolk early and he seemed at least average there.

The few quotes I’ve seen were pretty positive, but they were all from coaches or teammates who would have an incentive to say encouraging things.    So, hard to know.

Mountcastle played 26 games in LF and 84 at 1B. That might give us a hint as to where the organization expects him to play in the majors.

I could easily be wrong on this but it seemed like he was spending a higher percentage of time in the outfield toward the end of the season.

Interesting. We'll see where and how well he plays in ST.

Wasn't Mancini's also lopsided towards first base?

I think the hint might come from the fact he played most of those games in left in August - or at least it seemed that way.

I hope Davis is off team by 2020.

I think Can of Corn already said that. We'll see where he plays in spring training.

Me too but Signs seem to indicate otherwise.

If Hyde stay with the way he has been managing Mountcastle will play  LF/RF/1B/DH in ST.

If Elias stays the way he was last spring Mountcastle will be sent down after the second week.

I expect him to stay in camp the full time before he's sent down. The Hays plan.

I think it is going to be more like Stewart, sent down early so the fringe guys can get a better look.
