I believe Ryan McMahon will start in AAA. Is that just a service time game? Will he be up in a month or so? Or are the Rox planning on Desmond playing 1B indefinitely? Just trying to gauge if McMahon is a worthwhile pickup for teams looking to contend this year.

A three way, two position platoon at 1B and LF between McMahon, Desmond, and Parra at least seems possible if Desmond is willing to keep bouncing around the field. Some occasional off days for LeMahieu at 2B might be another way to get McMahon some playing time if he is capable enough there.

I just don't think Parra is all that good. But I don't manage the Rockies. I think the Rockies are more likely to squeeze him than the guy they paid $80mil in Desmond.
I have seen suggestions in the past that playing everyday in Coors is tough on your body. Maybe the Rockies are finally embracing that idea and planning to give everyone a day off or two every week. Except Arenado and Blackmon, anyway, they're so good and durable that it would be dumb.
