I'm also a little surprised Tellez got sent down. We need a LH bat hitting clean up imo. RHP with good sliders are going to pitch around Vladdy to get to the more vulnerable Grichuk.
One could argue that Espinal would be a suitable pinch runner in extras also. You don't necessarily need base stealing skills in that scenario. I think the added infield defence Espinal brings outweighs the smaller edge Davis brings defensively, especially when we'll probably see Biggio in the outfield or at DH more often.
So it looks like Jonathan Davis will be sent down today or when Springer is back? The intriguing question is who will be sent down when Teo is back within a week?
Let's hope Bo's lack of defensive play this year isn't messing with his offence. I haven't seen his two strike approach lately. That was a big spot in the game where a base hit scores two big runs, but Bo looked long, even with two strikes.
