Who would you sit if we get Bell?

Tellez

Yelich

Cutch

 

I think they'd be able to find enough at-bats for everyone. Tellez shouldn't play against lefties. Cutch shouldn't play every game against righties. And Yelich needs an off-day every once in a while for his back. In less cavernous ballparks, Cutch can also play CF.

Well, I think this is a long shot not because of who they have at Bell’s positions already. I think it is a long shot because other teams are said to be involved. Bigger markets too. Also, the asking price is going to be steepish for this rental, I imagine. Best hitter on the market maybe.

Easily Rowdy if a LHP is throwing, otherwise Cutch can sit or spell in the OF vs RHP

Sweep the Red Sox and bring devers/ Martinez back with us!!! I know they’ve said they won’t trade devers, but I think everyone is available on this team given the state of the AL east

Well we could just kidnap him too

Can play it sure, play it effectively, that would be debatable.

Maybe the nationals can hold on tonight.

Tellez does not historically have big LH-RH splits; He's mediocre, but he doesn't need to be platooned. 
McCutchen should only be in CF in extremis.
