That may be true - but I think you have to consider the value of a weekend stint in the big leagues. Sounds like a Plouffe or Nunez activation on Monday will send Polanco back to single-A, so it may be more helpful to his development (and by extension, this organization) if he gets a taste of pace and pitching in the bigs. Hopefully he can start on Saturday and face Darvish. Polanco is also on the 40-man as a single-A player. What happens when we have to add Sano and Meyer to protect them from the Rule 5 draft? His development needs a little more oomph so he can be a valuable major league contributor/justify his roster spot.
