In the best of times, our days are numbered, anyway. And it would be a crime against Nature for any generation to take the world crisis so solemnly that it put off enjoying those things for which we were presumably designed in the first place, and which the gravest statesmen and the hoarsest politicians hope to make available to all men in the end: I mean the opportunity to do good work, to fall in love, to enjoy friends, to sit under trees, to read, to hit a ball and bounce the baby. -

It's hard to figure out the 2019 depth chart for this team.
In a 15-team mixed with 10 keepers, I have Ji-Man Choi at $5 and minor league contracts for Brandon Lowe (129 ab, one short of league minors disqualification) and Nathaniel Lowe.
It looks like Brandon Lowe is blocked to start the season (Wendle/Duffy/Adams/Y Diaz), and McKay is due to take over 1B shortly. Any reason to be excited about any of these three (other than their 2018 #s)?people called me an idiot for burning popcorn in the microwave, but i know the real truth. - nullnorComment

For whatever it's worth, with McKay having no service time, I'd be shocked if he was up before the Super Two deadline. It's what the Rays do.Originally posted by Controller Jacobs View Post
I'm cautiously optimistic that the Rays traded for Yandy because they have a theory on how to fix him and get him to hit the ball in the air. Dude has crazy exit velo numbers but buries everything in the ground.Comment

The Rays just locked up Brandon Lowe for 6 years, $24m. He's a sneaky source of power, and now the Rays have no issues with service time or other nonsense. Is he the current favorite for the 2B job?Comment

No, I think Wendle is still favored as the starter at 2b for now, but I love Lowe's bat. I think he will play at 1b/DH/2b/OF--anywhere that gets him in the line up, as he can hit. I have him and am super happy they locked him up.Originally posted by revo View PostComment

Lowe is going to move around much like Wendle did last year. Some 1B/OF/2B time is coming for him. I don't see him with one single spot everyday, but I see him in the lineup nearly everyday. I'd alter your projections for Daniel Robertson and Matt Duffy as they're the most impacted by this.Comment

Blake Snell agrees to a 5 year, $50m extensionComment

y'all play in free agency. We'll just play in retaining dudes.
They basically gave him the Archer-structured deal and I don't think he finishes in TB either.Comment

Matt Duffy said he will be out untl mid-May, so it will continue to be the Yandy Man's job until then (presumably).Comment
