Do we have enough space on the 25 man to keep a bench guy making 6.7M?
OF - Werth, Span, Harper, & Bernadina - 4
IF - Zim, Desi, Espi, ALR, & Lombo - 5
SP - Stras, Gio, Zimnn, Haren, & Det - 5
RP - Storen, Clip, Mattheus, Stammen, HRod, Duke, & one other lefty - 7
C - Suzuki & Ramos - 2
That leaves you with 2 spots. If you keep Tyler Moore you probably want a utility guy who can play multiple positions. Morse & Moore aren't great in the OF so you really limit yourself IMO. Do they keep Morse and send Moore back to the minors? I doubt it.
I am really interested to see what Rizzo does with this situation.
Why not option Moore? Only hurts leverage to assume a deal HAS to be done, but you're right, that's a pricey bench bat
