Me to. Dude deserves it to. I remember all the crap AA got when he made the trade about how he couldn’t stay healthy
I think it was more people were afraid of Snit's potential usage of Sale, which would prevent him from remaining healthy, rather than AA buying damaged goods.
He has played 3B before (84 innings with the Phils this year alone) so I believe that will happen.

Logic says they‘ll take at least one of the two. Heart says it’s going to be a split.

Merrifield could either start every day at 3B or LF. Urshela's defense has been incredible since joining the Braves so that would be something to consider. Since joining the team he's been the most valuable non-catcher defender in baseball.
No amount of defense at 3b makes up for a horrid 68 wRC+ since the trade deadline. Unfortunately, Kelenic at 70 has been almost as terrible.
When Albies comes back I think the correct move will be Whit at 3B with Laureano in LF full time. Kelenic and Gio simply aren’t hitting enough to warrant PAs in crunch time.

I don't disagree but Laureano hasn't been getting in the lineup everyday for some reason. Also looks like Gio is due for some positive regression while Laureano is due for some negative regression.
