Jose Tabata.

I am a little surprised, but if they send Snider down they have no LH bat off the bench with Alvarez and Davis both starting.

Any playing time that Tabata would get should go to Harrison anyway. I agree with the move.

Use Tabata for trade bait for some bullpen help. Even a setup guy.

That would require some team that would actually want a corner outfielder with no power or speed, that is due 9 million dollars over the next two years.

Possibly, we'll have to see the diagnosis on Marte, but that could be the case. The interesting thing with that, makes for an easy solution to keep Josh Harrison in the lineup.
