Edman85 Posted November 15, 2022 Share Posted November 15, 2022 49 minutes ago, Tenacious D said: factoring in to these decisions around Tyler, Willi, Harold, etc... is less about their contributions, but instead that they are taking up a 40 man roster spot, making other prospects vulnerable in the Rule 5. Ultimately, we might end up picking up players of their ilk later on, but we should not put any prospects at risk for players who are easily replaceable. Ummm... look at all the guys taking up 40 man spots. There are 10+ less worthy than Willi and Alexander, thus their roster decision is all about surplus value relative to their likely salary through the arbitration process.

I only listed those guys as examples. I agree that there are others more deserving of being cut, if necessary. But if pressed, Willi and Tyler are easily expendable. And please don’t start a response with “Ummm.” Comes off incredibly condescending (and we had made so much progress together lately).

Brendon Davis was a three-level hitting star in 2021 so I thought he might have been interesting enough to keep around and give him one last look. Guess not.
