Waiting to hear who gets removed from roster to make room for Davis.

As you anticipated. After a bad recent stretch, this will help the gate sales.

The PG article quotes Shelton saying, "Our two catchers will be staying so we’ll be using him in different ways.” They anticipate C, DH, RF. With Cutch also at DH and OF, I'm thinking Palacios will be optioned. He's done ok but with Reynolds, Suwinski, Joe, Cutch, Bae and Davis all available for OF or DH, I don't see many ABs for Palacios.

Dear God. Heaven have mercy.

The poor kid's future is in Shelton's hands and Cherington's direction.

Do not trust any process whatsoever.

At least he'll get rest.

Shelton will make sure he gets plenty of rest.

I added it.

I think you and I will need plenty of rest.

Blocked by Austin Hedges. Not sure what that says.

This really angers me. I'm glad they're bringing him up, but there's nothing that he learned in the last six days to suddenly be ready for MLB. I totally understand the idea behind debuting him at home. But that means they just played six very important division games with less than their ideal lineup. Would it have made any difference? Probably not. Honestly, he'll probably be overmatched at first. But it's tough to do worse than 0-6 on a six game trip. Maybe he wouldn't have helped. But maybe he would have.
