Yeah, because of those four guys at least two likely fail. Who do you pick between Allard, Touki or Wentz ? I think even many scouts could make the wrong choice. Let the guy who wins the job...win the job. Anything else is a professional guess.

Take the $20 and sign a 3rd baseman or any big hole (besides starting pitching). I know our pitching hasn’t been great, but you take out the Colons, JJ’s and Brother’s type off the team and the ERA looks better (even with younger guys struggling). It’s crazy that guys like Morris sit in AAA.
