The Bring up Taylor Green Thread


I truly believe Doug Melvin's biggest issue sometimes is trying to prove everyone that he was right in the long run, rather than accepting maybe he was wrong and moving in a different direction.

 

Why do you have this belief, rather than believing that Melvin is basically just too conservative, and hesitant to sit down a player when he believes that player has shown in the past that they could get the job done?

 

Melvin let Hardy OPS .667 until August 11th, and let the Brewers fall 6.5 games back before he finally demoted him. How is that an example of Melvin trying to prove to everyone that he was right?

 

I don't want to rehash the entire 2009 Hardy incident, but I do think it provides evidence contrary to your belief.

My personal inclination has always been that DM is trying as hard as he can to trade for a legitimate SS or 3B right now. If for some reason he can't get someone by the 7/31 trading deadline they will probably at least consider bringing up Green. Right now I think their view is that they don't want to bring him up and throw him to the wolves unless they absolutely have to. I also have to imagine he is a lock to be a September call up.

 

Of course we could make a pretty good argument that they have to bring up Green now.
