With Travis and Ockimey so far from being sure bet ML'ers, I think we have to keep Dalbec in the 1B picture.
Dalbec is also a nice guy to have at 1B, because he can be the 3B back-up.
When you say it's gonna happen now
When exactly do you mean?
Travis is starting to raise some hopes he can hit at the ML level.
Championships since purchase by John Henry group: Red Sox 4 Yankees 1
The Red Sox are 8-1 in their last 9 postseason games against the Yankees.
Yes, I'm impressed, but he has to show this for a longer period of time.
He's been at .921 for only 60 PAs.
He's was at .296 the previous 23 PA (.721 overall).
.794 in AAA this year (268 PAs) not great for a 1Bman
.731 in AAA over 4 seasons (1198 PAs) not even good.
.771 overall in the minors.
Let's keep Dalbec around, just in case...

Travis’ ceiling is bench bat/backup 1b/fourth OF whose limited to LF...
I gave up on Travis long ago, but we have nothing to lose by giving him one more shot to show what he's got.

I wonder how many people still think Feltman is the closer of the immediate future...
Cole Sturgeon had 3 HRS today, and hit a 2 Run HR in bottom of the 10th to win it for last game of season. For the Pawsox.
Dalbec finished .257 last 10 games hit .205
And he's not even on the list of prospects!

Ockimey, finished season hitting .204. last 10 games hit .129.

His OBP of .353 more than makes up for his low BA.
His .811 OPS and being over .900 vs RHPs two years straight makes him a possible platoon 1B/DH type going forward. Possible- maybe not likely.

Wouldn't shock me if they Release him.
I would be mildly surprised.
The guy kills RHPs, and Chavis, Travis and Dalbec do not have the same numbers as he does versus righties.
I think we give him a long look in ST'ing and he may be part of a 1B platoon with Chavis/Travis/Dalbec. (Chavis may play 2B or 1B & 2B.)
