Despite Vinnie's struggles this year, we need BOTH of those bats in the lineup if/when Cags gets the call up. Our most productive offensive bats are righties. We could use another big time LH bat to help balance out the lineup. Vinnie and Cags can split time at 1B, DH. If Cags can play some passable RF, you could stick him out there every so often. I mean, Renfroe has looked uncharacteristically bad out there this year, so he couldn't do much worse.
You could be looking at a lineup like this:
LF India
SS Witt
1B/DH Vinnie
DH/C Salvy
RF/1B Cags
3B Garcia
CF/LF Waters
2B Massey
C Fermin
That's a lineup that would play . . . . .
(And, yes, Renfroe should be DFA'd if/when Cags gets the call up. He serves zero function on the roster when Cags gets up here, especially with Cahna on the bench)
