He cant play OF. If he could we would have seen him there already. We have not.
He cant hit. He is a K machine. We have all seen this and the offense did get better without him.
Giving him a roster spot would be based on what he was year/years ago not what he is now this year. It would be sentimentality writ large. It would be idiotic. The organization needs to man up and tell him he didnt make the cut.
