Think this is the interesting part - wonder if this signals that AA's going to be particularly aggressive on the trade market this winter and in turn with Pache and Waters next spring. With the logjam of arms, would he target a Polanco or OF on a short-term deal rather than bring Markakis back?

You'd expect that hanging onto a couple of AAAA corner OFs like Tucker and D-Pete would've made sense, but Duvall certainly made Peterson expendable, and bringing Tucker back gives you the LH bat to tuck-away in Gwinnett if Nick isn't brought back.

I would imagine this is primarily about having another left handed bat on the bench for this season and has very little to do with positioning for next year.

Not unless he's added to replace an injured player.

Please don’t answer questions when you don’t know the actual answers. You’ve shown beyond all doubt you have no clue who is and isn’t eligible for playoff rosters.

There is no way Tucker can be on the playoff roster.
