Leading Candidate for roster spot
A few notes on the 25-man roster projection…
1. For the first time in six years, we are projecting two starting lineups.
It only makes sense with Maddon’s platoon mentality. As a result, we are
projecting platoons at C, 1B, 2B and DH.
2. LINEUP: Andrew Friedman says Elliot Johnson, Reid Brignac and Sean Rodriguez
will share middle infield duties. That leaves Ben Zobrist to play right field
and possibly some first base. If Desmond Jennings is not on the opening day
roster, look for Justin Ruggiano and Leslie Anderson to see playing time
there. DH is wide open and could still be filled through free agency
(Johnny Damon, Jim Thome?)
3. BENCH: We are giving Justin Ruggiano the edge over Leslie Anderson because
Ruggy is out of minor league options and because Joe Maddon already has Dan
Johnson and Matt Joyce as left-handed bats at 1B and OF.
4. ROTATION: If the Rays don’t trade Matt Garza, and Jeremy Hellickson is on
the opening day roster, look for Jeff Niemann to be the odd man out. Yes,
he was a solid starter in 2010, but with his injury history, the Rays may
want to limit the mileage on his arm.
5. BULLPEN: If we include Jeff Niemann, six spots appear to be spoken for.
Adam Russell is out of minor league options, so he is in. Cesar Cabral has
to be on the opening day roster as a Rule 5 pick. And as a lefty, he can
take JP Howell’s spot. What the bullpen really needs is a closer. The Rays
won't spend the money to bring back Rafael Soriano (right?). So why not
Jeff Niemann?
6. OPEN SPOTS: Based on this projection, the Rays still need to add a first
baseman and a relief pitcher. There are several minor leaguers that could
fill the final bullpen spot, but look for the Rays to sign one more cheap
middle reliever.
