Thoughts on Blake Swihart going forward

[Roy Hobbs]

He will be coming off the DL at the end of July, but his luster lost some shine when Boston indicated he was no longer in the picture as a catcher short term and will play left field. He may still be in their plans long term for catcher, but I'm not sure about it. He's a lot more attractive as a catching prospect than an outfielder IMO. What are your thoughts on him?

His bat won't play as an OF and he hits too many weak groundballs. As a Red Sox fan, I was really hopeful for him but with no power in his bat I don't see anything exciting short-term.

Dombrowski also hinted he may call-up Benintendi, so I don't think Swihart will be much of a factor this year.

Is he worth hanging on to in a dynasty league with short rosters (32)? No salaries or contracts to consider.
