I know platooning is likely, but I dream of the day when we have eight starters on the field. Ok. Then seven. But man I’m tired of half baked players.

It’s cause he has a sac fly and very limited at-bats. I assume he’s going to walk sooner or later. Might stay that way for a while.

I really have no idea on Ruf. I do know 40 home runs is a lot and the Phillies have a dramatic need for right-handed hitters. My hope is that they will give him chances but not count on him to be part of the core. Seems like he should get consideration as the right-handed part of a platoon in left.

Anyway, he’s been good. I hope he gets a chance to win a roster spot next year.
