Bat, I can see Sanchez (or Endy, Guti, or other) coming here to compete vs Ruggs, Bloomquist, and for a 25 man spot... but there is no room in Tacoma for him, or for anyone else.
In Tacoma, you have Montero, Romero, Choi, Morban, Blash, Jones, Landry, Paolini, Kivlehan, DJ, and possibly a couple others fighting for 7 spots - 5 OF, 1B and DH.
Yes, some of those end up in Jackson, but there you have Lara, Rivers, Pizzano, Barbosa, Austin, Henry, Pimental, Wilson, Melendres for just 7 spots there too.
And as much as Jack / Mather and the Mariners speak of keeping this going for years to come.... these prospects are NOT going to get ignored. Jack is purposely creating a spot or two where these young players can break in, ONLY if they perform... and with SO many guys competing, I am sure someone will step up.
