Bloomquist is our only IF type on the bench. The 8 RP's is a situation that doesn't last very long.
Trumbo played 41 games in LF last year, but Cruz and Trumbo in the OF together isn't terribly pretty. Fangraphs (not my favorite stuff) has Trumbo at -15 UZR/150 in LF last year.
We're not playing Ackley in LF vL, I think. So we're a bit short.
Montero is positioned right out, right now. Too bad, because he hits lefties. Guti doesn't make us very flexible in the IF. I wonder if Ackley is getting any 2B/3B reps in practice.
Romero has played 2B in one game this year. Drats.
Shawn O'Malley: hits lefties to the tune of .333-.382 over the last couple of years (and switch-hits) plus he has started at every position THIS year, except C. Also, has 12 xB hits in 153 AB's vL over the last two years.
I would prefer we just bring Taylor up.....but if we're looking at a utility guy who hits LHP pretty well, O'Malley fills the bill. I like guys like that!!!!!
