Ortiz should be up now, and in the starting lineup most games. I wonder if Elias is concerned that if he struggles at the major league level again it might tank his trade value.

Fixed that for you...

Shouldn't be concerned because he shouldn't trade him.

Too much potential, could easily be superior to Westburg considering the plus glove

He isn’t up because he doesn’t want him to sit at the MLB level. You have Urias, Westburg, Frazier here for 2nd and 3rd plus Gunnar plays SS and 3rd.

Can't see it.  Stupid X shows up when I click on my desktop and doesn't go away.

 

Can you summarize?

Who backs up SS? Reliably that is.

Essentially.  Norfolk lit it up last night.

Mateo for now.
 

If he gets dealt it will be Ortiz.

I believe Westburg would be the backup to Mateo for tonight's game.

I thought the question was a general one about the roster. Not specific to tonight.

I assumed in your scenario Mateo was DFA

Maybe tonight, but I wouldn't call Westburg be a reliable backup at SS 

[Moose Milligan]

Ortiz better be up soon.

He said reliably, which eliminates Mateo.
