As you’ll be able to see, Merrill was the far and away winner. Whereas Jackson is the very best of the three (so it’s comprehensible why he received this vote), I might make the case that Jake Cronenworth and Luis Arraez’s accidents are each extra regarding than him.
Merrill is getting back from a hamstring harm. Positive, that would linger however Cronenworth has a fractured rib and Arraez is getting back from a concussion. Merrill’s is a pressure. These different two are extra questionable for me once they come again.
If Cronenworth will get hit within the rib, might that knock him out for the yr? And concussion points are clearly greater than any pressure because it’s inside his head.
It looks like there’s a risk that Arraez returns subsequent week when he can come off the 7-day concussion IL so this is probably not a difficulty transferring ahead whereas Cronenworth and Merrill received’t be again till at the least early Could. However we simply don’t know 100%.
As soon as Merrill comes again from his hamstring pressure, I’m not going to be fearful about it as a result of I assume he’d be coming again when it’s 100% whereas there’s simply extra uncertainty with the opposite two.
Be happy to go away your ideas within the feedback!
