We’ve been hearing about and talking about Mej for a couple years. He’s yet to really break into the majors, and is positionless.
Yes he is a promising bat, but the window is open and keeping Mck is more valuable IMO. Balt would need to throw in the best reliever in the seal also.
It likely won’t happen, but it should be on the table.
How is he positionless? I’d consider him versatile if he’s beginning to exhibit a promising development as an outfielder. If Terry said he needs more time there before being thrusted into the lineup at that spot, so be it.
And as far as his not getting more time at catcher, you’re looking what’s a top-5 catcher platoon in baseball that has a continuity/chemistry with one of baseball’s best rotations. There’s nowhere for him to play right now if he isn’t ready for OF and you sure as fuck don’t trade his long term rights with that potential for a temporarily controlled player.
It’s far away from making sense.
