Assuming Izturis starts at 2nd. Who is the utility infielder??

[KingKat]

Everyone else as in, Saki/Thole/Goins and Santiago, correct.

 

Yeah Izturis and Tolleson are the ones who can't be sent down and if you assume Travis takes over the position at some point, at least one of them will have to be DFA when that happens. Rather than roster both now just to delay that decision, I'd rather make a decision now about which one is worth keeping and roster whichever one that is and have a better backup ss on the bench.

That would be Izzy in this case.(The latter)

Tolleson is crap and should not seriously be in contention.

 

He was decent out of the pen last season.

Yeah I like Tolleson but it's kind of overkill with the lefty mashers right now. The three best hitters are righties, Valencia is out of options so he has to take a bench spot, Pillar is the 4th OF and Navarro though a swith-hitter is stronger from the right side and Viciedo might even steal the 1B/DH role away from Smoak. The last bench guy really doesn't need to be a guy like Tolleson in that case. Give me the switch hitter Santiago or even the lefty Kawasaki.

I personally would want Goins on the bench

Personally, I think yer dumn!

[jays76]

Thinking about Tolleson & Izturis is making me nauseous.

Nobody cares what you want, you don't even exist anymore!
