Pretty much. Better to have a guy who has limited upside in a sub role and when he's in the lineup he adds physicality and youthful enthusiasm. I don't think he's entirely useless, but I don't want any real prospect making the team just to sit and not develop. Van Brabant will likely be a good bottom 6th sub and I have Byron as a top 6 sub in lieu of any high end prospect call ups.
