Dedmon will be our Joe Blanton then.

With the way Reed's been playing I'd rather just roll with him and see where he is by the end of the regular season. If it's not good enough dust off Dedmon.

This is exactly where I"m at with this. Let Paul Reed play, Dedmon is insurance, Harrell is a chess piece. That's how I would play that if I were Doc. Reeds time is coming, everyone knows it including Doc. He's going to be the one that can make something happen in a playoff series as a backup. I know that's not saying a whole lot, but he's our best shot.

Fair point! I was unintentionally being generous when I was trying to convey my sadness. :lol:

I agree with your sentiment, but doesn't the term innings eater mean someone that won't move the needle one way or the other. I wish we had that as our backup C and wish Dedmon was that guy lol
