Trumbo will be taking reps at third base.

Abreu is current #1 DH on depth chart (nm)

Only because Morales hasn't played in two years. One of (short)

Kendrys will not play 3rd, he can't even run yet. He is a DH (nm)

BYUheaven

Feb 22, 03:36pm

I havent heard an update on his status.. (short)

BYUcali

Feb 22, 03:38pm

he was cleared to run outdoors on Sunday,

Wells has sucked for a long time.

mpfunk

Feb 22, 03:40pm

If you are starting Wells you do certainly (short)

Feb 22, 03:31pm

It's about time

Hang10

Feb 22, 03:33pm

Abreu publicly said yesterday he wanted to be traded (short)

BYUheaven

Feb 22, 03:35pm

I don't know, but Trout needs to be on the field. (nm)

furiousb

Feb 22, 03:38pm

That is why you trade Abreu

BYUheaven

Feb 22, 03:45pm

Having said that, you would not be technically trading Abreu

BYUheaven

Feb 22, 03:47pm

Exactly. (nm)

Wells sucks. If you are talking about using

mpfunk

Trumbo had an OBP of .291. That really, really sucks.

Scratch

Feb 22, 03:38pm

But his production was solid

Hang10

Feb 22, 03:41pm

That may be, but if your 1B is only good enough to bat 7th

Scratch

Feb 22, 03:51pm

Except he won't be playing 1B...likely 3B (short)

Hang10

Feb 22, 03:52pm

His OPS+ though is above-average at 113

mpfunk

Feb 22, 03:43pm

Exactly, and if you're a contender you don't want to have a

Scratch

Feb 22, 03:46pm

Angels are not asking Trumbo to bat cleanup.

BYUheaven

Feb 22, 03:49pm

Bingo! (nm)

Hang10

Feb 22, 03:53pm

Again, that's kind of the point.

Scratch

Feb 22, 03:57pm

He's either starting at 3B or on the bench

Hang10

Feb 22, 04:13pm

My point is that Trumbo is not that good as a 1B,

Scratch

Feb 22, 04:18pm

I think we agree...he was the best option last year (short)

Hang10

Feb 22, 04:23pm

Yep, and if you're a contender you have a small problem

Scratch

Feb 22, 04:44pm

If he can handle third base then that changes everything.

Scratch

Feb 22, 03:54pm

I agree, but he made leaps and bounds at first (short)

BYUheaven

Feb 22, 03:55pm

Absolutely, you get that production by a 3B

mpfunk

Feb 22, 03:58pm

We need to see if Trumbo's foot heals too
