2019 opening day roster prognostications

Now that ST is here, it's time to place your bets.



I think they start with Alonzo in AAA, for contract purposes;

I think they start with 8 in the pen (I'd prefer 7, with a legit backup SS, like guillorme), and hopefully go down to 7 when Alonzo comes up in a month (particularly since JD Davis can give them some mop-up innings if necessary);

And while I hope they can move any or all of Frazier, Lagares, d'Arnaud, and Vargas, I don't expect it to happen.



Therefore:



lineup

Nimmo (Rf)*

Lowrie (3b)#

Cano (2b)*

Ramos (C)

Conforto (Lf)*

Frazier (1b) [Alonzo, after a month]

Lagares (Cf)

P-

Rosario (SS)



bench

McNeil*

d'Arnaud

Broxton

Davis



rotation

DeGrom

Syndegaard

Matz*

Wheeler

Vargas*



bullpen

Diaz

Familia

Wilson*

Lugo

Gsellman

Avilan*

Dowdy

D.Smith [goes down when Alonzo comes up]



Next!
