Sure seems like he’s earned another chance. He couldn’t be worse than Senzel could he?

Not much power at all on the season but two homers in the past few games. Walk rate is really good. I'm open to giving him another shot if the alternative is Senzel or Lipscomb.

But I could absolutely see him playing worse than Senzel in the majors. I would be surprised if he wasn't.

Spent almost as much time at DH as he has at third. Only role for him is a light side of a platoon.

we have so many bad righty hitters right now. Compare to  Abrams, Wood, Winker, Garcia. There's Thomas, plus Young for some singles. And . . .

Kieboom is not exactly knocking the cover off the ball at Rochester, hitting .748 OPS.

Over .800 against LHP this season. Like I said, could be a cheap platoon option at first of DH

The recall of Adams, Yepez and Lipscomb will free up time at 3rd and 1st. I expect him to get reps in the field rather than DH. Maybe the guy can develop into a utility role.

Kieboom and Rainey are the only players (not coaches or former players who are now coaches) in the organization from the 2019 championship team. At least players in the org who played on the big league club that year.

His utility is pretty much 1st base and DH. He was a pretty bad defender at third before his elbow injury. I supposed maybe, just maybe, he could play second base. But, again, he's limited to being the light part of a platoon

Can we trade him to the Padres for a future all star?
