Numbers.  German and Fuentes to AAA to start the year and see how they handle the pcl.  Cronin will probably start at a+ or AA.  At least one will emerge as serviceable or even great next year

Yeah, how'd that work out for Bourque, Williams, Adams and the rest of the scrap heap from last year that had good AA and AAA numbers in 2018?  Those dudes had better numbers at higher levels and did absolutely nothing useful in the majors last year. 

I think with his finish Ross should have first crack at the 5th spot, Voth as the long/swing guy, and Fedde waiting in AAA or AA to be closer.

I think you also might want to sign a couple mid-relief/setup guys and push Suero to the minors.  It sucks to be the dude who has options, but it sucks even more to be the team who doesn't have any reliever depth waiting in the minors for the inevitable injuries.
