Possible, but probably hard to do without more hitting there also.

He didn’t have surgery, I don’t think.

I do beleive that some of the players on rosters are there for a short period of time and they know it, making a roster may not mean they will make an entire season.
I wish them all lots of luck.

We know with as much certainty as we can have about any prospect that Stavinoha, Robinson & Rapoport are unlikely to have substantive major league careers. Not that they aren’t hard working, talented players . . . . just probably not major league ones.
