I did mean Tabata. And he was so awesome he hit .240 with no power and couldn’t run out a ground ball.

I assume you mean Tabata??? Nevermind that Tabata was just fine at the plate from June on (108 wRC+) with the best obp of the group (.350+).
Anyway 5 guys for two/three spots (1B for Jones) gives us quality competition.

Rojas is my candidate to have the ‘light go on’ this year.

In other words, I just gave him the ‘kiss of death’. lol

Marte has his deal, he’ll be back. Still didn’t look too good when he returned, still couldn’t run out a ground ball.

I’m hoping they bring in some help here as this was a glaring weakness but if not I would have to think its got to be Marte in LF, Snider in RF, Tabata as the 4th OF and Presley in AAA.
