if unimpressive defenders (and LHHs) Keith (2b), Sweeney (SS), and Jung (3b) are getting a lot of playing time, will Harris will keep Baez as a defensive/RH back-up for them, rather than have the difficult conversation with Ilitch?
I think yes, as the only risk for Harris, who obviously did not sign him, is that Javy goes somewhere else and performs better while Ilitch pays him $75M - and we know Harris does not like risk.
