Follow the Prospects: Cayden Wallace, 3B

[welch]

Yes. I get the attachment to Lipscomb, who is an OK fringe guy who can play all over the infield. There's value in that. I don't think Levi Jordan serves a purpose.

It looks like there's 3 corner infielders on the Rochester roster (Abi, Yoyo, and Chappy), with now Glasser and Lipscomb the primary MIs. Crews,  franklin, Hassell, and Pinckney split the OF time. Jordan is the last guy position guy, and there's 3 catchers, including Tres.

The only reason Wallace and King are down, I think, is playing time considerations. At this point, I would not let Lipscomb's playing time block Wallace or King. If Glasser needs a demotion, then that's OK, too.

They seem to have decided that YoYo is a 3B. Maybe that's only while they decide between Chappy and Abi at 1B, but YoYo has not played 1B more than a game or two. If they promote Wallace, who plays 3B?

Wallace has played both 2B and 3B, although mostly 3B this season at Harrisbuyrg. At 2B, Rochester has been playing Phillip Glasser in part because the OF is packed and there's no other MI prospects on the roster. I'd figure  he'd play 2B at AAA.

YoYo has played 144 games at 1B in his minor league career.

Think you have to play Wallace at 2B, just to prep him for a MLB call up.

This seems like an easy problem to fix. Just call someone up.

YoYo is playing 3B and DH at Rochester, while they start Chappy and Ortiz at 1B. I would drop Chaparro from the 40-man and give YoYo more starts at 1B, then put Wallce at 3B in AAA.

i suspect they aren't sold on House at 3B and may end up shifting him to 1st.
