Victor Scott has earned a spot on this team
So naturally, Siani will come north with the team

Re: Victor Scott has earned a spot on this team
Remember when Vic "earned" a spot last year, was futile in the Majors, and then did poorly in AAA? He hasn't shown he can hit anything above AA pitching yet.
Neither Vic nor Siani can hit so Noot will be given every opportunity to be the starting CFer. In that case, it is blatantly obvious to have Siani make the team as backup CFer and defensive replacement while Vic goes back to AAA to get regular reps and see if he's figured out how to hit AAA pitching yet.
If yo think Vic can me a legit MLer, he needs to keep developing in the minors.
At this point, they are the same player although I'd say Siani is the better defensive player at this point.

I hope they give Vic some runway. Let him start the first 10 games and get comfortable.

Agree with this thinking. If VS2 isn't starting almost every game, then he goes to AAAGeneral wrote: ↑17 Mar 2025 14:53 pm Remember when Vic "earned" a spot last year, was futile in the Majors, and then did poorly in AAA? He hasn't shown he can hit anything above AA pitching yet.

There will be plenty of reps even if there is a pseudo time share.
This does point to the organizations failure to move Arenado though and the consequences
Re: Victor Scott has earned a spot on this team
It won't be any kind of time share. Noot will begin the season as the starting CFer and the backup may get 1-2 starts a week at most. If that changes and if Vic is hitting while playing every day in AAA, Vic can be brought up. At this point, however, Vic hasn't shown the slightest indication that he can his anything above AA.bfib wrote: ↑17 Mar 2025 16:14 pmWhy?scoutyjones2 wrote: ↑17 Mar 2025 16:12 pmAgree with this thinking.

If you really are high on Vic, you want him in AAA so he can develop for the long term.
The inability to move Arenado was a problem but it's over and time to move on. I will say, he did get traded to one of the five teams he said he would go to only to ultimately turn it down. I can't blame the org for that, especially with the limitations they were under.
Re: Victor Scott has earned a spot on this team
He should be the starter in CF with Noot in LF and Walker in RF.
Re: Victor Scott has earned a spot on this team
If this team is such a failure why did average 90 wins over 14 full seasons from 2008-2022. You think by keeping mentioning this you can re-write history.bfib wrote: ↑17 Mar 2025 16:14 pmWhy?scoutyjones2 wrote: ↑17 Mar 2025 16:12 pmAgree with this thinking.

No one remembers Scott "EARNING" a spot last year, including you.
Scott was given the assignment because of injuries to the IGNITER, Edman, and Carlson.
Now, a year later, Scott has shown improvement necessary to say he is worthy of being here.
