Benintendi promoted to majors

[navamind]

What To Expect: Andrew Benintendi

Benintendi actually has more walks than strikeouts in AA since the beginning of June.

0-2 last night, correct?

With Swihart looking like he will be taking the Left Field position for the remainder of the season.

 

[navamind]

Yeah, that called strike 3 in the 2nd at bat was absolute horseshit






Just the opinion of a Cubs fan

 

[Bmurph]

Has to be better than Alex Bregman's start in the bigs

Blake Swihart - OF - Red Sox
Blake Swihart will visit a specialist in North Carolina Friday to receive a second opinion on his sprained left ankle.

Swihart's recovery has stalled and now there's legitimate concern that he could miss the rest of the season. The catcher-turned-outfielder hasn't played since early June and surgery remains a possibility. With Swihart out and Brock Holt back in a utility role, Andrew Benintendi and Bryce Brentz have been holding down the fort in left field.

Chris Young (hamstring) will run the bases on Friday.

If all goes well, he'll begin a rehab assignment early next week. Young has been sidelined with a strained hamstring for about six weeks. He's expected to platoon with Andrew Benintendi in left field upon his return.

I didn't word my response very well. I was saying with Swihart most likely being OUT for the remaindeer of the season than He (Benintendi) will be taking over the position in Left Field.
