Injecting youth into the lineup
Lots of conversations about this. What are the negatives to injecting some skilled youth players into the lineup?
Positives I can think of are higher energy / tempo, excitement, mentorship for the young players, keeping competition in the lineup and getting rid of a stale environment. Potential to see future stars. Keeps the farm team players pumped to get a call up. Helps for future signings.
If players like Pelletier and Phillips actually get a proper shot and don’t perform then we can just send them back down, big whoop. The potential is way more of a benefit than not. If they make mistakes, big whoop, our veterans are making plenty of mistakes already, they’ll just fit in.
Getting very frustrated about this. Bring up the youth.
