    He's a plus fielder who has gotten off to a bad start on O and D.

    He deserved a 5 week plus look, and now it might be time to start cutting back on his playing time or consider letting him "work it out" at AAA, once Santana is ready.

    108 plate appearances.

    Not time to pull the trigger yet. But might be time to entertain thoughts on a Plan B...

    And there you go. The Sox have optioned Franchy Cordero to Worcester.

    .179/.228/.274 with 37 strikeouts in 102 plate appearances.

    We might not have seen the last of Franchy. He has a few years of team control and 2 options left.

    Who knows, if he starts to rake in AAA, maybe we even see him again, this summer.

    Here's a thought. Just with left fielders with at least 100 PA's this year, there have been 6 starting left fielders who have a worse WAR than Francy, however, he is dead-last in OPS, but only .005 behind the next guy.......named Jackie Bradley.

    It's unfortunate because Franchy has some of the biggest power in the big leagues, but all the power in the world means nothing if you can't barrel up the baseball. Hopefully Santana can replicate his 2019 and give this lineup a jolt.

    Any word on who is coming up?
    The Yankees could go 0-162 and it wouldn't be enough

    Brennen, Brewer or Wilson?

    Or, we add someone to the 40.

    I think the demotion to AAA could either revitalize his career or end it.

    Agreed, but I mentioned his name, because we sent down an OF'er and Duran is going to the Olympics.

    If we cut him, he'll get a chance with someone else.

    I think he sees the bigs again, at some point- maybe even this year.

    I don't think they cut him unless he is flat out garbage in Worcester.
